Dearest Gentlefolk,

I write with profound contrition regarding the grievous impropriety of my recent postings. Alas, the barest brush of fingertips hath found their way into your most innocent dashboards. I throw myself upon the mercy of polite society and vow henceforth to temper my enthusiasm — or at the very least, to swoon discreetly.

I embrace my downfall: the loss of reputation, a tragic farewell to society, and a pensive morning spent gazing wistfully at the horizon...until, at last, a handsome gentleman strides toward me, his shirt artfully unbuttoned, to confess (thrice, with increasing desperation) his undying love.

[metamorphesque]

The point of marriage is not to create a quick commonality by tearing down all boundaries; on the contrary, a good marriage is one in which each partner appoints the other to be the guardian of his solitude, and thus they show each other the greatest possible trust. A merging of two people is an impossibility, and where it seems to exist, it is a hemming-in, a mutual consent that robs one party or both parties of their fullest freedom and development. But once the realization is accepted that even between the closest people infinite distances exist, a marvelous living side-by-side can grow up for them, if they succeed in loving the expanse between them, which gives them the possibility of always seeing each other as a whole and before an immense sky.

― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

May you attract a love that respects your boundaries and values your individuality, nurturing your spirit with kindness and understanding.

— Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena

[text ID: I wish the world were ending tomorrow. Then I could take the next train, arrive at your doorstep in Vienna, and say, 'Come with me, Milena. We are going to love each other without scruples or fears or restraint because the world is ending tomorrow.' ]
