“How strange that the years and ocean between us have brought us closer together.”

“As I descended the stairs, the years between us seemed accumulated everywhere, filling the house, and it seemed strange to me, how love and habit blurred so thoroughly to make a life.”

“I dont think any kind of love is without some kind of hurt along the way. It's how we get to know each other better, how we decide what's for real...what's the eternal stuff, what is going to push us closer together and seal the bond between us.”

“I’d put more distance between us. Having us here, always together hasn’t allowed for any fondness to grow between us.”

“The glue of mutual need that bonded us so tightly together for all those years is melting away. Dark patches, not light, show in the spaces between us.”

“Only Christ could have brought us all together, in this place, doing such absurd but necessary things.”
