About This Quote
This quote about how close two people can be is a reminder that we are just two people. We are not so much different from each other after all. We are the same, in many ways. We have our own stories to tell.
We have our own dreams and hopes for the future. We have our own fears and anxieties, too. There is not nearly as much between us as I thought there was when I was ready to give up on us.
The thing that makes it possible for me to love you is that I know you love me, too.
