Kathleen Kelly:
I've been thinking about you. Last night I went to meet you, and you weren't there. I wish I knew why. I felt so foolish. And as I waited, someone else showed up: a man who has made my professional life a misery. And an amazing thing happened. I was able, for the first time in my life to say the exact thing I wanted to say at the exact moment I wanted to say it. And, of course, afterwards, I felt terrible, just as you said I would. I was cruel, and I'm never cruel. And even though I can hardly believe what I said mattered to this man - to him, I am just a bug to be crushed - but what if it did? No matter what he's done to me, there is no excuse for my behavior. Anyway, I so wanted to talk to you. I hope you have a good reason for not being there last night. You don't seem like the kind of person that would do something like that. The odd thing about this form of communication is you're more likely to talk about nothing than something. But I just want to say that all this nothing has meant more to me than so many... somethings. So, thanks

I've been thinking about you
00:00:04.169 --> 00:00:07.673
Last night I went to meet you and you weren't there
00:00:09.383 --> 00:00:13.012
I wish I knew why I felt so foolish
00:00:14.888 --> 00:00:16.724
As I waited someone else showed up
00:00:16.974 --> 00:00:20.227
A man who has made my professional life a misery
00:00:20.477 --> 00:00:22.896
And an amazing thing happened
00:00:25.357 --> 00:00:27.026
I was able for the first time
00:00:27.276 --> 00:00:29.403
to say the exact thing I wanted to say
00:00:29.653 --> 00:00:32.573
at the exact moment I wanted to say it
00:00:33.996 --> 00:00:36.827
And of course afterwards I felt terrible
00:00:37.202 --> 00:00:39.413
just as you said I would
00:00:40.414 --> 00:00:43.167
I was cruel and I'm never cruel
00:00:44.767 --> 00:00:46.962
Though I hardly believe what I said mattered to this man
00:00:47.212 --> 00:00:50.299
To him I am just a bug to be crushed
00:00:51.997 --> 00:00:52.301
But what if it did
00:00:52.551 --> 00:00:56.555
No matter what he's done to me there is no excuse for my behavior
00:00:57.264 --> 00:00:58.641
Anyway
00:00:58.891 --> 00:01:01.031
I so wanted to talk to you
00:01:02.144 --> 00:01:04.605
I hope you have a reason for not coming
00:01:04.855 --> 00:01:08.776
You don 't seem like the kind of person who'd do that
00:01:09.401 --> 00:01:11.999
The thing about this form of communication
00:01:11.999 --> 00:01:14.999
is you're likely to talk about nothing
00:01:14.999 --> 00:01:16.283
But I just want to say
00:01:16.492 --> 00:01:20.012
all this nothing has meant more to me than so many
00:01:20.999 --> 00:01:21.956
somethings
00:01:23.001 --> 00:01:25.003
So thanks
