love quote [4]


oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling
safe with a person,
having neither to weigh thoughts,
nor measure words, but pouring them
all right out, just as they are,
chaff and grain together,
certain that a faithful hand will take

and sift them
keep what is worth keeping,
and with the breath of kindness

blow the rest away.


[george eliot]
