βOh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person; having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but to pour them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then, with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.β
George Elliot.

Thank you for this reflection. I called a friend I haven't spoken to in a while, and remembered the connection we have together whenever we are reaching one another Eben when we haven't talked in a long time. This person is very special to me. As you are to my everyday. Thank you again.
Would you believe me if I told you I was actually just thinking about this quote when I was speaking with my mom today. I love it, especially the imagery of sifting, the chaff and the grain, and blowing the rest away. I find that beautiful experience with my mom. Iβm so lucky. So blessed.
