We are surrounded by messengers. Total strangers can tell us things that are essential for our growth. My hitch hiker, Raymond Sandy, was one such messenger.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say ALWAYS pick up hitchhiker's (I'm personally WAY too paranoid for that), but I was interested in this story from beginning to end. Its an interesting thing he said to you, definitely open-ended, and I would have liked to hear a little bit about what that means to you. Might have helped us to know who YOU are a bit more? Definitely an engaging story though, good luck to you!

It falls to the enlightened, and the intelligent and the sane to take responsibility for the deluded or doltish or insane.

So much time has passed that even Taos is not what Santa Fe used to be - you'd have to go somewhere more remote than that - where the galleries have not yet displaced the artists. I liked your story. It reminded me of another time. As for standing only where you can stand - I have no problem with that - but occasionally there are opportunities to see with eyes that belong to all of us...
Peace and the best of luck.
