Oh, the Comfort


Oh, the comfort --- the irrepressible comfort of
feeling safe with a person --- having neither to weigh
thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all
night out, just as they are, chaff and grain together,
certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them,
keep what is worth keeping, and with the breath of
kindness blow the rest away.

~ Dinah Maria Mulock Craik
