“I thought about that, copper bodies and silver wings. Eventually both would oxidize, but neither would rust. The copper would turn green and the silver black. Absentmindedly, I said “Unless they’re polished, their colors will fade”. “Like a person” “Pardon?” I returned my gaze to her profile. “People need to be polished, stroked, touched,” her tone was abstract, “and when they are not polished, their colors fade. They change, warp, become something different”.”

“Stories are timeless. They spill through ages, times, genders, races, religions, nationalities. They unite us. With the world the way it is at the moment, they’re one of the only things we’ve got left that does. People are still reading books that were written hundreds of years ago. Children are still brought up with fairy tales that date back to centuries we can’t even imagine living in. That’s magic of a different kind.”

“People may tell you it’s time you got over your relationship. Like with bereavement, you don’t ever have to “get over” it, but you may need to more forcibly move yourself on, and if you’re stuck, to take a new approach to do so. Hurtful experiences, ones that #emotionally and logistically reset our lives, leave us with two choices: open up more or close down. The braver choice—the one that will allow new things to enter your life—is to open up. So how about setting aside a few weeks to unfold this a little more? If you can’t climb out, dig out. Go in, sit down, see what happens. Give your heart the chance to say everything it wants regarding the relationship and whatever is entwined with it. Give yourself a new and different opportunity to leave it behind. -------------------------------------------------------------- “I still bear the dolorous, after your absence; I am helpless, to live with someone else; I did not want gab, but I wanted your love; I still feel the regret that it needs to assert.”
