As some of you probably know, if you read/follow this blog lately, I’ve been feeling kinda blue as of late.

Tonight I went out for a walk.

I wanted to go out and be around people, but I didn’t wanna have to be phony or make small talk.

I decided to just go to the drug store and buy a bottle of Scotch, perhaps, but that felt boring and not right.

I ended up—after a couple walks back and forth—going into this izakaya, where I was blessed with the beautiful presence of others, who seemed to be also open to some human presence.

Please watch this short video and I’ll tell ya the story.
