“ For you and for me, the highest moment, the keenest joy is not when our minds dominate but when we lose our mind—and you and I both lose it in the same way, by love.”
Quench Your Appetite for Adventure
The impression is worth more than the outcome.
And,
The idea cannot override the impression.
This is the current context of my relationship.
I look forward to seeing him all week. I am filled with excitement by thoughts of our engagement.
I do not anticipate the conversation. I do not imagine our interaction. I simply feel the trust and thrill when I feel his name. In my mouth/ in my body. My blood rushes from my heart—that little throbbing organ that beats.
// I hope, I hope, I hope.
Sit in the discomfort of not saying anything.
Don’t fix it.
Don’t ask questions.
I am doing all the emotional labour and there is nothing tying us together outside for what I have done.
It will come undone just as quickly or,
He will have to step up and do some of the work.
You have said it already-
it will move beyond the words.
Be open. Be gentle. Be kind.
Balance is restored when you quietly ask for what you want.
