Last night me and my best friend sat in a freezing carpark, shivered, questioned, answered and listened until 1am. There were many moments when the conversation broke and could have ended, luls ripe for wrap ups and dead ends begging for goodbyes. But for some reason in the freezing cold we made a silent pact to see through whatever came. In that slow sad atmosphere a saftey crept around both of out bones that let us sit in silence, waiting for words if they wished to come. It was overwhelming and beautiful and when the spell broke we ran giggling around the parking lot until it was time to leave.
Moments of safe uncomfortability are moments of beauty and I'm taking this as a lesson to sit in them when I can :)
