is
more than
evolution required.

I saw this quote from the book somewhere few weeks ago. It is the reason I’m putting up with this book and will finish reading it soon. Love is not a fin or a tail or an extra unnecessary tooth. It’ll be the last thing to pass through the evolutionary blades.
The photo!!! Preciousness…
Rachel’s face? Total beautiful surrender.
I’m not crying.
