Katharine Hepburn

I remember something Katharine Hepburn once said in an interview not long before she died. It had to do with relationships and spouses. She said something to the effect that you can never really fully contact with another person.

It struck me the way she put it. I could really relate to what she was saying. We are born alone, (unless we are twins) and we die alone (for the most part). Relationships come and go.

It is as if we try and find faults and differences as a first priority. I'm guilty of this. Instead of looking for reasons to pull together, we first look at what is wrong with a relationship or wrong with a person, and find reasons to pull apart.
