Oh, this is the creature that doesn't exist . . . . In fact, it never was. But since they loved it, a pure beast came to be. --Rainer Maria Rilke
The unicorn ... stories have been told about it for centuries, many people say it never existed.. it a myth, yet in telling its story, we make it real.
Friendship is like the unicorn: created from faith. Before we speak, reach out, believe in the possibility of relations with another.... when we share a meal, a joke, or a walk--a piece of ourselves--we open ourselves . . one in the other person, the other within ourselves...
How does sharing myself with another create a friend within me?
