There are other people who I relate to in moments but I felt great comfort in assembling a list of people I feel kinship in around love very, very consistently. Because I wanted to know this group existed. Because I want to engage in a curiosity around love as long as I live.

So many thanks for all you give me.

If you even want to talk about your own experience or thoughts around love, I will listen. I can be found, and I can listen. If you are not on this list maybe I just haven't gotten to listen to you yet, or maybe your voice is best heard by others.

EVOL.
