Third Movement: Leela Is a Party (opens the original)
Read excerpt
By the time the first guests arrived, the rain had mostly subsided. Or perhaps it had softened enough that I stopped paying attention. I can’t recall.The flowers were on the table. The burned food had successfully been vacuumed from the stovetop, an innovation I remain willing to defend. I had changed clothes. Luzy had entered the particular state of excitement toddlers seem to experience when they realize several adults have gathered in one place and therefore must obviously be there for them.T
Second Movement: The Weather Report (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The flowers were still in my hands and outside the window, Philadelphia had disappeared beneath a gray sheet of rain.Not heavy rain, nothing dramatic.

The beautiful white wall. I hurried to clean it and scrubbed until most of it disappeared.Then my phone pinged. It was a photograph of me. My beloved had taken it a few nights prior and sent it.I stared at it for a moment and it struck me how different I loo
Love that Remains: An Inquiry (opens the original)
Read excerpt
IntroductionWhen I began writing these essays, I believed I was writing about intimacy. At least, that was the word available to me at the time.I did not have an agenda and I definitely was not trying to prove a philosophy or explain my framework.I was simply following a question wherever reality insisted on taking it.Each Movement answered a question and each answer quietly gave rise to a new question.Looking back, I can see that no essay ever truly ended, rather each one became the thres
