For several moments he did not move from the doorway: he heard the girl’s soft, thin voice rise above the murmur of the assembled guests she served. She raised her head, and suddenly he met her eyes; they were pale and large and seemed to shine with a light within themselves. In some confusion he backed from the doorway and turned into the sitting room; he found an empty chair in a space by the wall, and he sat there looking at the carpet beneath his feet. He did not look in the direction of the dining room, but every now and then he thought he felt the gaze of the young woman brush warmly across his face. ↗

Much better now. And Sunny—there's no such thing as 'too much' when it comes to us. Too much mutual interest, or awareness, or desire, or too much damn love—there's no such thing." "I love you beyond obsession," I murmur, terrified because it is too much. "I love you to insanity," he replies, utterly solemn. "That's who I am, and that is who we are.

Niente è facile. Non lo è mai. Se così non fosse sarebbe tutto più semplice: niente dolore, niente delusione, niente solitudine. No, nulla di tutto questo è possibile, perché niente di ciò che realmente conta può essere facile. La gioia nasce dal sacrificio, dalle ginocchia sbucciate, dai cuori infranti. Perché ciò che ci è stato inculcato da bambini non può essere vero: non ci sono favole, non ci sono eroi o grandi imprese, c'è la determinazione di persone semplici che non si arrendono mai! ↗

He turned and quickly removed his pants. My eyes grew huge, since he wore nothing underneath. I started to stammer, trying to avert my gaze,his sex all but riveting my eyes as I stared, blatantly helpless.“We will not make love. You’re in this bed as a friend. Why make things difficult?” I was hot all over; his body was perfect, strong, welcoming and oh-so-alive. ↗

Since God exists outside of time, He also has all of the time He needs to personally act in each of our lives. There is never a rush to the next meeting or the next message. ↗
