Distance

We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by 

the distance they have traveled from the point where they started.

~ Henry Ward Beecher

There is a guy in town whom I have seen twice at the Hy-Vee parking lot.  He walks around with his boom box booming, "Slow Ride" by Foghat.  I like him.  I only see him at the Hy-Vee parking lot.  And I only hear him playing that one song.  

And I only like him from a distance.

This might be unusual.  But it isn't.  Because from a distance is how I really like most people.  And by "a distance" I mean about half the width of the Hy-Vee parking lot.
