Relationships are never about power, and one way to avoid the will to power is to choose to limit oneself - to serve.

If a rainbow makes a sound, or a flower as it grows, that was the sound of her laughter.

City and country -- each has its own beauty and its own pain. Some of the smallness of small towns -- cattiness, everybody knowing everybody's business -- that can be challenging. And cities can be challenging, because no one can connect except electronically.
