When people are out of your life, for whatever reason, it is this really strange feeling sometimes when you realize that they still exist, that they’re out there in the world having thoughts and feelings and they’re doing something right now, this second, whatever it is. Making dinner or watching tv or writing songs or whatever. And then you have to think about the people that you’ve met but don’t even remember, and they’re having lives too. And all the people you’ve never even met and will never meet, they all have life stories too, and right now a lot of them are really happy and a lot of them are tragic and a lot of them are just doing ordinary things but they are feeling like those things are really important. There are so many narratives in the world.
