I won’t be giving too much away, by saying that my “best friend” and I read aloud to each other. Every time I visit. We both save up long passages of books, poems, and lyrics, then bring these to each other to read.
There is an amazing thing that happens, when you’re still, and listening to the human voice. There are some writers, poets, and lyricists that seem to create with the spoken word in mind. When one reads aloud to one you cherish, and the passage speaks your heart
