Quote by Leo Tolstoy

“Our minds were so perfectly in harmony that not a chord was struck in the one without awakening an echo in the other; and in this harmonious striking of different chords we found the greatest delight. Indeed, we felt as though time and language were insufficient to express the thoughts which seethed within us.”

“We grow in connection with others. Everyone needs to hear that the person's voice saying, 'I believe in you. I can see possibilities that you might not see quite yet. I imagine that something different can happen, in some form or another.' In therapy we say, 'Let's edit your story.”
