A Quote by Laura Teresa Marquez on books, language, connection, understanding, insight, direction, values, ideas, friendship, and romance

My life is -- as if each person I know was born with a beautiful book with golden edges on each page -- and each of us can read the language of our own book -- containing our own unique values, ideas, insights and direction, yet we cannot read the language of anyone else's book, and they cannot read our book.  And, then, you and I started talking and I discovered that while the words in your book are different from mine, the language of your book is exactly the same as mine -- and words flow and flow between us without effort.  Then, I looked closer in my book and I saw beautiful, happy pictures of you and your family...and I smiled.
