Because everything we do in life is sacred, so too everything we say in conversation.

Conversation changes us—not only does it make us, but makes us anew each turn, phrase, sometimes each word.

Who’s to say there is there no imagination that we as yet understand but even then catch?

Be ever in earnest. Conversation is the water jug of life.
