Écouter, we live on a planet where lightning turns sand into glass, dolphins give each other names, the ocean glows in the dark, and rain has a scent before it falls… L'odeur du pain fraîchement cuit… Vous devez comprendre ce dernier point… People tend to walk past that, or even worse, just take it for granted… But these are powerful, natural forces… Forces to be reckoned with… A real and deep friendship is also such a powerful force… Est-ce que vous comprenez cela?
