The simple joy of a conversation

I was in DC going to a summer camp. i have met up with the international group and we were in a museum. while we were having lunch we were trying to get to know one another so me and a guy from Russia struck up a conversation about books. I was so very excited to be talking about how wonderful it is to read.
He told me I should read Atlas Shrugged which surprisingly i bought a day before! i remember us being sp excited to be talking about books with such passion that we were both smiling the entire time. That was how we bonded and became inseparable for the next two weeks
