"I never used to do that but I know that I can look into people if I want to, now. It's something that happens if you start allowing yourself to be looked into. You get what you give.
I used to do some sort of eye meditation. A Japanese meditation which you do with a mirror, where you look at your own image until it disappears. You try and put your consciousness into the mirror image, rather than where you are.
What happened for me was that I would get a flash; I would lose myself, effectively.
I think that if you want to talk to someone and get close to them you can just look into each other's eyes, as lovers do and find out a lot about what's happening - the old thing about mirror of the soul.
I feel at times I should be of use to people."

Which is how I feel every time I read a bit about myself or my life reflected in Rick. <3 Nice to know we are not alone in this world. And when someone with something in common with you is someone whom you can adore SO MUCH - - then there must not be too much that's so terrible about you, then, right?
