“Love, I would later conclude, was all things to all people. Love was the breaking and healing of hearts. Love was misunderstood, love was faith, love was the promise of now that became hope for the future. Love was a rhythm, a resonance, a reverberation.

The same gravity that relentlessly pulled at me was defied as I rose into something that became everything.”
