Rekindling of love from "summary" of The Lover's Dictionary by David Levithan
We didn't talk for two weeks. When we finally did, we both apologized. I said I was sorry for being distant. You said you were sorry for being busy. We laughed, and it felt like we were back in the beginning. It was a rekindling of sorts. It's funny how distance can make you appreciate someone more. When we were apart, I realized how much I missed your voice, your laughter, your presence. I found myself thinking about you more often, wondering what you were doing, hoping you were thinking of me too. When we finally saw each other again, it was like a spark had been reignited. We fell back into our old routine, but with a newfound sense of appreciation for each other. We made more of an effort to communicate, to spend time together, to show each other how much we meant to each other. I think the time apart was necessary for us to realize just how much we cared for each other. It was a wake-up call, a reminder that love takes effort and communication. It's not always easy, but it's worth it in the end. Our rekindled love felt different this time around. It was more mature, more grounded. We had both grown individually during our time apart, and that growth brought us closer together. We were able to appreciate each other's strengths and weaknesses, to support each other in ways we hadn't before. I believe that our rekindled love was stronger because of the time we spent apart. It made us realize just how much we meant to each other, and how much we were willing to fight for our relationship. Love isn't always easy, but it's worth it when you find someone who makes you feel alive.
