VALENTINE’S WEEK… PERSONS, PLACES AND THINGS…

Part ONE… I STILL LOVE YOU, NEW YORK❤️❤️

I BELIEVE… I believe in NEW YORK.. I do.

Let’s look at who we are .. DOERS.. we came here to DO… we LIVE to SHINE… ( you can’t live here in this “CITY OF DREAMS” and not have at least a dozen ..) ❤️. Everything is possible here.. if by nothing other than sheer numbers …Somewhere in this “mashup” of people … there’s your “audience”.. your “tribe”:: your “everlasting love”… THIS. KNOW.. for sure …

Our way of life is based on FINDING .. NEW YORKERS DO NOT KEEP TO THEMSELVES .. annoyed and aloof .. we are ALWAYS scanning .. actively searching..with a #carriebradshaw “catchphrase” in an invisible bubble over our heads ..: “I JUST CAN’T HELP BUT WONDER..:”.

We don’t stay inside .. we roam, we engage … we “prowl”.. and that .. WILL COME ROARING BACK… and the sidewalks will be full.. and the #greatlawn will be packed with laughter and faux “beach” blankets .. we will fill the gyms, salons, wine bars, local bars, restaurants, and shops .. and it will happen ..SOONER THAN LATER…

NYC will not be shy … it never has been ..not once in its 396 years ..

Here’s my prediction .. ( based on real psychology..). PEOPLE WANT WHAT THEY ARE DENIED … I know.. so do you.. GET READY… my NYC pals…. that 7 pm “clap and cheer” is going to turn into a TEAR FILLED REUNIONS .. smiles, and NYC PRODUCTIVITY.. this time .. we won’t take it for granted .
