People respect you more when they don't see you often. Even parents. Trust me. It's strange how distance rearranges love, how absence restores what closeness erodes. When people are deprived of your presence, they start seeing you clearly again, not through habit but through awareness. Proximity dulls perception. Space sharpens it. That's just how the human mind works.
Germans are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met, had a chance to interact with a handful and they talked about how much they loved Chicago. They have a fan in me for life 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
