"I keep telling this story-different people, different places, different times
-but always you, always me, always this story,
because a story is a tightrope between two worlds."
_______________________________________________

lovers are continously replaced, but a friendship can never be revived in another person.
I cannot substitute one friend for another, - can you?

Dependency is a treacherous path towards helplessness
and even friendship may sometimes turn out to be just that
Jeanette Winterson says there is no love that does not pierce the hands and feet
and what about friendship?
the aftermath that should not exist, what comes after the end
they don't sing songs about that

if a lover turns you down; he looks at you and sees you are not what he was looking for
it is painful, but acceptable
when a friend turns his back; he looks at you and says "you are not good enough
even to be counted among the people that I call mine."
The rejection is not of friendship but of your very essence.

"It seems that we cannot know enough about this riddle of our lives.
We go back and back to the same scenes, the same words, trying to scrape out the meaning.
Nothing else could be more familiar. Nothing could elude us so completely."
