Conversation Between Selves

You are best and brightest when you are happy for the triumph of a friend.
I see this in your photograph. You are holding the bouquet you caught.

You are best and brightest when you are listening to the pain of others.
I see it in their eyes. You make them believe they are strong.

You are best and brightest when you are taking enormous risks.
I see you hold the photograph up to your face. You are wondering if it is really you.
