I hope that one day you will have the experience of doing something you do not understand for someone you love. - Jonathan Safran Foer

I put my hand on him. Touching him has always been important to me, it was something I lived for. I never could explain why. Little, nothing touches, my fingers against his shoulder, the outsides of our thighs touching as we squeeled together on the bus. I couldnt explain it, but I needed it. Sometimes I imagined stiching all of our little touches together. How many hundreds of thousands of fingers brushing against each other does it take to make love?

One day you will do things for me that you hate. That is what it means to be family.

It has shown me that everything is illuminated in the light of the past. It is always along the side of us...on the inside, looking out.
