.: the space between - pt. 2 :.

Posting from Eastern WA...



The essence of what I am speaking to is the reality that there is a given potential in the nature of each and every friendship / relationship that we experience. There is the space between the “ground” of the beginning of that relationship and the height (better yet, depth) of what degree of intimacy and fellowship can be truly achieved in the sense of it being “perfect”. And for those friendships that we share with our “casual friends”, the possibility is tremendously limited, so we in turn have very little responsibility with regards to move into a more intimate level because there is not the perceived opportunity which is presented in those friendships that appear “unlimited”. What it would mean to love that person with whom you could only become good friends at best is far easier to deal with and experience in contrast to the person with whom you face having the “ability” (chance presented by circumstances) to potentially move into the most intimate of relationships (i.e., the marriage relationship).
