I My Favorite Poems

“Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are -- chaff and grain together -- certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.”

~ Dinha Maria Mulock Craik

Azuriela, isn't it sad that so many have to do this, even with those closest to us? I wonder if they also have to edit their words with us? I think so. We all take things so personally, even when it's not personal, but how wonderful life would be if we could let our ego and sensitivities go to a certain extent.
