Why do I like you?

Sierra asked me that last night. “Why do I like you so much?”
“I dunno,” I said. I really didn’t have an answer.
“Do you like me so much?”
“Of course I do!” I said. I mean, who couldn’t like this little girl? She’s so funny and sweet.
Her question really got me thinking though - why do we, as humans, like things? Why do some like certain things while others don’t, and to differing degrees? Is it something metaphysical, like a god, or is it simply the way our brains function? However you choose to explain it, only one thing is certain - love exists. Whether it’s simply a reaction of the combination of the right hormones or it’s something beyond understanding, it exists, and it’s a beautiful thing.
Later, Sierra asked us, “Is there a ‘bleu cheese?’” We said yes and then she asked, “Is there a ‘purple cheese?’”

Bush laughs funny.

- Some really bad luck - a very long but interesting read {link}
- A very cynical Top 10 list of the most overrated bands - I agree with some of them, but not all {link}
