Anais Nin

Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

Behind the line

What it means

Our interpretation.

Friendship is imagined as opening an inner world that may not have taken shape before the meeting. The other person’s arrival becomes part of discovering what is possible within oneself. The language of birth gives that encounter a creative significance beyond simply adding another companion to a life.
