Rilke says, "I hold this to be the highest task for a bond between two people: that each protects the solitude of the other." I'm not entirely sure what he meant by that, but I envy him if he ever found someone to fulfill that expectation.
These two seemingly unrelated statements exemplify the gap between the real and the ideal.
Sometimes I think I hope too hard for something that doesn't exist.
