Everything is exactly what it is, and at the same time it is more than what it is.
I spend all of my time hoping you will understand.
It took me two car wrecks and 20 of your mother's favorite pieces of china lying broken on the kitchen floor to realize the world has so much more to say when it is silent.
Come back before you are ready.
Come back as anything you want, but you are still responsible for what follows you.
We need quiet to help us understand sound, as in : we need this tree to look differently under a cloudy sky than it does under a clear one.
The Why comes later.
Your father kisses your cheek and tells you goodbye and you spend the rest of your life not believing him.
