he spoke to me and he said..

"this isn't really all of me. it's not enough. i don't want to start there."
so i went back to the landscape and i took the camera out and started snapping again, and just sort of listening to what he had to say, to the stories he told. some very interesting things had happened in his travels through Europe, for one, and i never knew, but if i had just stopped and listened.....
see, because i got so wrapped up in what happened to him in Kansas that i kind of forgot that here was this person with so much more, with so much to tell..so now that's what i'm doing, just kind of sitting here, snapping pictures and listening to what he has to say.
Manfred has so much to tell....
