”Ah! Even suffering is joy if it be shared!
I have a friend!... Away from me, near me,
in me always. I have my friend, and I am his.
My friend loves me. I am my friend’s,
the friend of my friend. Of our two souls
love has fashioned one.”
[Romain Rolland]
Journeying through life with others we sometimes reveal that some persons are always with us. Somehow it happens we find each other knowing it in spirit or in essence. It’s like a sleeping part of our world has woke up, though it hadn’t been sleeping, but we were only aware of it. Yet sometimes even loving friends need to find the best way of communication that works for them both.
We live in different parts of the Earth, so in different cultures. We gained various experiences, so even spirituality may be considered different, though it’s often not. And of course, we are extraverts or introverts, active or passive, prefer public or private talks, and some of us practise a big small talk while the others just can’t even hear it. The differences which lay in habits are usually just external, but may have impact on mutual interaction.
Someone told me recently that is very happy having two introverts around, because now realized that it’s not about being left out, but about the way of expression that is different. Where there is love and good will every attempt is appreciated, so what is known in spirit may appear on Earth in some way.
Making friendship may be very exciting and joyous while keeping the essence we set the details, because the details can always be changed and refine.
Especially if the revelation is true.
