“One night I read this in a book about two lovers: 'They could have a whole conversation with just one glance between them,' and it makes my stomach lurch with longing.” RelationshipsLoneliness Book:Love Warrior Source: Love Warrior
“In all my close friendships, words are the bricks I use to build bridges. To know someone I need to hear her, and to feel known, I need to be heard by her. The process of knowing and loving another person happens for me through conversation. I reveal something to help my friend understand me, she responds in a way that assures me she values my revelation, and then she adds something to help me understand her. This back-and-forth is repeated again and again as we go deeper into each other's hearts, minds, pasts, and dreams. Eventually, a friendship is built - a solid, sheltering structure that exists in the space between us - a space outside of ourselves that we can climb deep into. There is her, there is me, and then there is our friendship - this bridge we've built together.” LoveRelationshipsFriendshipBridges Book:Love Warrior Source: Love Warrior
