In loneliness, in sickness, in confusion-the mere knowledge of friendship makes it possible to endure, even if the friend is powerless to help. It is enough that they exist.

Pam Brown

But before I had time to too deeply regret speaking the words aloud, she answered "Frequently." And her cheeks took on a faint pink glow. I dazzled her. My silent heart swelled with a hope more intense than I could ever remember having felt before.

Why do they make things so complicated?"So that those who have the responsibility for understanding can understand.," he said. "Imagine if everyone went around transforming lead into gold.
