Let The Winds Of Heaven Dance Between You
"And What of Marriage?"
"You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore. You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days. Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God. But let there be spaces in your togetherness, and let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
"Love one another, but make not a bond of love: let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf. Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each of you be alone, even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
"Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. For only the hand of life can contain your hearts. And stand together, yet not too near together: for the pillars of the temple stand apart, and the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow."
Peace

Somewhere in the excellent script of Before Sunrise and Before Sunset with Ethan Hawke, they discussed this topic and it was decided that God truly exists in the space between two people.
It reminds me that to yogic practices life is lived between breathes... and to tread lightly on the earth.
