Thanks you for visiting my blog today. Love yours. One of my all time favorite books is While I Was Gone. I have that same quote written down.
Another I wrote down:
"Perhaps it's best to live with the possibility that around any corner, at any time, may come the person that reminds you of your own capacity to surprise yourself, to put at risk everything that is dear to you. Who reminds you of the distances we have to bridge to begin to know anything about one another. Who reminds you that what seems to be-even about yourself-may not be." (pg 266)
