I love hearing of all the serendipitous connections with the date and birthdate. The way you risk pouring out your soul is what draws me to you. I'm usually too matter-of-fact in words and thought. You help me access the soft, deeper, poetic side I long to inhabit.

Itโ€™s a personal thing, right?

The thought of not โ€˜pouring outโ€™ is scarier to me. Keeping my heart tucked in deeply makes me feel disconnected. Something I used to do so stubbornly.

You are such a good writer. Restraint is commendable as well. Thank you my dear friend.
