The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen.
Just listen.
Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention….
A loving silence often has far more power to heal
and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.
It lies not in our power to love or hate,
For will in us is over-rul'd by fate.
When two are stript long ere the course begin,
We wish that one should lose, the other win;
And one especially do we affect
Of two gold ingots, like in each respect:
The reason no man knows; let it suffice,
What we behold is censur'd by our eyes.
Where both deliberate, the love is slight:
Who ever lov'd, that lov'd not at first sight.

Meet John, he was born premature, he's 9 months old, and what a difference his glasses make.
Through the darkness I can see your light And you will always shine And I can feel your heart in mine Your face I've memorized I idolize just you -=You're Still You=-
I pray you'll be our eyes And watch us where we go And help us to be wise In times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer As we go our way Lead us to a place Guide us with your Grace To a place where we'll be safe
My aunt used to collect poems and letters in her youth and compiled and bound it for keepsakes. One of her bound memories ended up with me. This is one of the cards given to her by her suitor with a composition that I love reading again and again.
Dream by Rolando Carbonel
Love... may not be you... loving me
but it may be me loving you,
despite that, it may be me
wanting to forget you, and me,
not being able to.
It may not be me seeing you
though it could be me
feeling your soul's encompassing presence.
It could be you forever
walking away from me,
yet never really leaving me
It could be you searing my soul
with your mocking laughter, your piercing
my being with your deep tenderness.
Love could be you wondering
at my futile intensity
and I wondering
why you wonder still....
