Each day we will begin anew, start over, learn and grow. It is hard beyond our door."<br/><br/>"Here is our sanctuary. Here we have each other. No matter what happens on the other side tomorrow when that door is closed and we are in here once more, we may become again who we really are.  Outside they will never know us. They only want what we can give them."<br/><br/>"And we give them nothing of ourselves. Safe yourself for when we are alone together."<br/><br/>His arms folded around her. He nuzzled her hand in his hair as he gathered her close and kissed her hard and eagerly in a way he had not done before. She did that to him. She made him want to teach her and share things with her, even himself.  Amazing.
