Unspoken desires have a kind of modesty--if they are not guessed, they can't be satisfied. It's as if they need two people to exist.

I think that it was doing me good to grieve over something that was not my usual grief.

A Bridge over the river by Tony Via Flickr: Many of the restaurants and cafes where on the opposite side of the river bank to the road, so the only way to get to them was over one of the many narrow bridges slung over the river. In winter when the water is higher it must be impossible to get over some times.
