Description

... and then The Little Prince. You found wall art of the "where you go, I go" quote while we were shopping but didn't want to buy and hang it until we moved into our home together. Early on you also introduced me to this story: The prince asks the fox to play with him because he is so unhappy. The fox says that first the prince needs to tame him. The fox explains that it means “to establish ties” because he and the prince mean nothing to each other, now. However if the prince tames the fox they will need each other always, and each will become unique and special in the other's eyes despite all the other boys and foxes in the world. The fox tells him a threefold secret: that only the heart can see clearly because the eyes miss what is important; that the time the prince has spent on his rose is what makes his rose so important; and that a person is forever responsible for what he has tamed. At the garden, the little prince realizes that, even though his rose is not a unique type of flower, she is unique to him because he has cared for her and loved her. His rose is like the fox. He has tamed her and cared for her, and now in his eyes she is the only rose. From the beginning (and for well over a year) neither of our feelings ever changed, nor have they even now. When the time came for you to have a voice, you chose to not have one (and silenced mine as well) because you convinced yourself it "costs too much to have a voice". Your future became a human sacrifice to your past... again. What now?
