About This Quote

We walked to meet each other up at the time of our love and then we have been irresistibly drifting in different directions, and there's no altering that. This Native American poem about two lovers illustrates the idea that two people cannot stay together forever even if they both want to. The couple will drift apart and find their way to each other again. If we had more patience we would be able to be more patient and wait for the person we love to come back around.

I think this is a good lesson about relationships. We should not rush into things and neither should we be too quick to give up on them.
