I read once that the ancient Egyptians had fifty words for sand & the Eskimos had a hundred words for snow. I wish I had a thousand words for love, but all that comes to mind is the way you move against me while you sleep & there are no words for that.

He loved her for almost everything she was & she decided that was enough to let him stay for a very long time.

Wanting him to come back before anyone notices part of the world has not moved since he left.

In those days, we finally chose to walk like giants and hold the world in arms grown strong with loveAnd there may be many things we forget in the days to come,But this will not be one of them.

Things they tell you before you were born (in case you were wondering why a lot of this stuff seems vaguely familiar) 1. Life will bump up against you & it'll be awhile before you stop taking it personally but the sooner you do that, the easier it gets. 2. It's all about Love. Even the parts you decide are really hard. 3. You're not going to have to do this alone, but you're going to take awhile to figure that out, too, especially if you end up in America.

There are things you do because they feel right & they may make no sense & they may make no money & it may be the real reason we are here: to love each other & to eat each other's cooking & say it was good.
