'Thinking aloud' in person, via phone or email, pondering life over ice cream or at a table eating together, drinking coffee together, walking or traveling together or being creative together, communicating with our hearts occurs all the time, whether one-on-one or in a group or distant in travel and time.

"A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him I may think aloud." Ralph Waldo Emerson

A patient friend allows all that is needed to be said without requirements or expectation, and when one's light is a little dim, a friend is ready to share some light to help see when needed. A friend listens with compassionate understanding when the other is talking too much or even when acting a little weird and silly.

You don't need a complete picture to see the smiles.
