"Picture this.
You and I, sitting on the couch. I'm at one end, you're at the other. We haven’t spoken a
word in a while. The room feels silent, but it’s not really. The sounds of the building are
around us. The clock is ticking, the whir of the lights is faint. We are hearing all of this on our
own but also know it is shared experience. We are both in this air, this light, this space
around us.
Picture this.
You and I engaged in thought. Completely and comfortably lost in our own moment in time.
Picture this.
Here we are. Alone, together."
