when tennessee williams said “the great difference between people in this world is not between the rich and the poor or the good and the evil, the biggest of differences in this world is between the ones that had or have pleasure in love and those that haven’t and hadn’t any pleasure in love, but just watched it with envy, sick envy” and when james baldwin said “not many people have ever died of love but multitudes have perished and are perishing every hour for the lack of it” and when ilse aichinger said “it remains the hardest to bear all the tenderness and only to gaze on”
Can I just say that I live for subtle touches….hands swiping against each other, arms grazing, knees press against each other, cheeks brushing, “accidental” thigh swipes. I just love the subtlety behind pushing comfort boundaries while both of yall pretend like you don’t notice. It’s really the simple things in life.
