• Lo que ocurre es que cuando eres joven siempre piensas que conocerás a todo tipo de gente maravillosa, que distanciarte y perder amigos es algo natural. Al principio no te preocupas por los amigos que dejas atrás. Pero a medida que te haces mayor, es más difícil entablar amistades. Demasiadas defensas, pocas oportunidades. Estás ocupado. Y para cuando te das cuenta de que has perdido al mejor amigo más querido que has tenido nunca, ya han pasado los años y eres lo bastante maduro como para avergonzarte de tu actitud y, francamente, de tu arrogancia.

• Seeing a patter doesn't mean you know how to put it all together. Take baby steps: don't focus on the folks whose skills are far beyond your own. When you're new to something-or you haven't tried it in a while-it can feel impossibly hard to get it right. Every misstep feels like a reason to quit. You envy everyone else who seems to know what they're doing. What keeps you going? The belief that one day you'll also be like that: Elegant. Capable. Confident. Experienced. And you can be. All you need now is enthusiasm. A little bravery. And-always-a sense of humor.

• But what Dakota most enjoyed about the beginning of winter was the crispness of the air (that practically demanded the wearing of knits) and the way that tough New Yorkers - on the street, in elevators, in subways - were suddenly willing to risk a smile. To make a connection with a stranger. To finally see one another after strenuously avoiding eye contact all year.
