My friend Maria wrote this, and I thought it was worthy of sharing on RM.

“So I am thinking, maybe it’s the seeking that is so important, and so very painful at the same time? I mean, the seeking of love, or of parenting, or of great partnership? You just kind of want it. Right there, or nearby, as my son expresses. But how? Still it is only through the painful how, that it can actually be found? I mean, how are you supposed to find it otherwise?”
