I hold this to be the highest task for a bond between two people:

that each protects the solitude of the other.
~rainer maria rilke

and when you come to a meeting of many ways and do not know which to choose, do not choose at random, but pause and reflect. breathe with the trusting, deep breaths you took when you first came into the world; let nothing distract you, but wait and go on waiting. be still and listen in silence to your heart. when it has spoken to you, rise up and follow it.
