The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you, but what he cannot reveal to you.
Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says, but rather to what he does not say.
Kahill Gibran

The really important kind of freedom involves attention, and awareness, and discipline, and effort,  and being able truly to care about other people and to sacrifice for them, over and over, in myriad petty little unsexy ways, every day. – from This is Water by David Foster Wallace

Sometimes it seems that all my time is spent picking up the pieces of other people’s lives.

Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased. Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken. But it is inscribed on a heart and there it shall remain forever. – Anonymous

Waiting for that great big crazy love to come again…

Act of Kindness, Canadian Thanksgiving, Mark Twain, Miraculous Mary medal, Vancouver

Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
Mark Twain

This past weekend I traveled to Vancouver to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving with my family. One afternoon while we were watching the cargo ships and spawning Chinook salmon from a pier along the Burrard Inlet, my sister-in-law spotted a couple wearing matching pendants and approached the two to get a better look. The ornaments were Miraculous Mary medals and to my surprise, the man gave me his. I was very moved by his act of kindness and will treasure it for years to come!

The stars will be watching us,
and we will show them
what it is to be a thin crescent moon.
You and I unselfed, will be together,
indifferent to idle speculation, you and I.
The parrots of heaven will be cracking sugar
as we laugh together, you and I.
In one form upon this earth,
and in another form in a timeless sweet land.
from A Moment of Happiness by Rumi

I love to linger in our own sweet, sweet world…

She wasn’t exactly sure when it happened. Or even when it started. All she knew for sure was that right here and now, she was falling hard and she could only pray that he was feeling the same way.
from Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks

Is the love that takes your breath away too painful to bear?
