Hello!
I just wanted to let you know that life is pretty awesome. In my opinion, this is news-worthy.
It's the first day of June! Summer is coming! Summer is an affirmation of life, even moreso than spring. Therefore, I propose that the city of Portland needs to go out, look at life, experience the small things and those quirky little moments that make life worth living. These include, but are not limited to: a stranger's smile; a lull in conversation where you just know that the other people with whom you're speaking are completely on the same wavelength; that way that the rain looks like scattered gemstones on pavement when the rain just starts; the scenery as it spins by on the MAX wherein you know that you're GOING somewhere; and the way that the city is a buzzing thrum of burning life and anticipation between each festival that tears its way through town.
That's all!
