what i learned

... in the last few days

You can have a great time with people you know quite well, and each time discover something new that you like about them.
You can have a great time with people you just met half an hour ago, and be able to let them go at the end of the evening, knowing that there will be somebody else to have a great time with on another day.
You can have a great time with people you haven't seen in a long time, and discover a so far unknown side of them.

You can have a great time with everything when you give yourself up to the moment.
