connection through words on a page, i no longer see strangers the same way.
we’re always ready to write each other off. we all do it. i’m sad to admit i do it all the time. i first meet someone and almost automatically assume that they don’t have anything to say that will be worth the time it takes to sit and listen. the long river review is an invitation to listen. it’s a reminder that we are never alone, never lost. we just need to share our stories and read the stories of others.
