The ebb and flow

“When you love someone 

you do not love them, 

all the time, 

in the exact same way, 

from moment to moment. 

It is an impossibility. 

It is a lie to pretend to. 

And yet this is exactly what most of us demand. 

We have so little faith in the ebb and flow of life, 

of love, 

of relationships.”

-- Anne Morrow Lindbergh
