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

that each protects the solitude of the other.

kiss the rain

rain-flower

it was the passionately falling rain and electrifying roar of thunder that induced a kid-in-a-candy-store excitement this weekend. i have been patiently awaiting this storm since i showed up in the lone star state over a month ago. so when it arrived friday night, i felt a sudden urge to pick up the phone and share the news and then run outside to feel the rain on my face. instead, i grabbed the ever-so-captivating book that has been keeping me up all hours of the night and smilingly tucked myself into bed, silently relishing an extraordinary moment of perfection.
