The Calculus of Friendship

The Calculus of Friendship

I met you, and I was fascinated by the depth of your experience, the unique viewpoint of your spirit.  I was fascinated; I wanted to Grok you at the sub-atomic level, a quantum mechanical meeting of the minds.
You reminded me that in this corner of the universe, the concepts of “You” and “I” are still divisible, considered separate and distinct.  So I withdrew my tendrils and retreated for a time, content to understand you based upon such facets of being as you chose to reveal.
We communicate across the miles, exchanging tears and smiles; until slowly, steadily, through a process of step-wise integration, I get to know the area under your curve.
