is it a list? a long iteration of qualities and talents that is checked off at every meeting and opportunity? a "best fit deal?" a 'well, you fit 82% of the requirements, so i guess you win' thing?
or is it a set of scales? with one side labeled 'good' and the other 'not so good.' with qualities that fill up each dish and the final judgement witheld til the end. a good vs. bad thing?
or is it a hiding place? a sweet and quiet niche where you place your hopes and dreams. a secret room where you wait quietly for another to care enough to seek you out and find you, then you sit and talk forever. and there's no rush, and you have the rest of your lives. you slowly show them around the room, letting them see each hope, each fragile dream. and they do not laugh, or jeer, or roll their eyes. but merely smile and listen with honest interest as it comes softly shining in each other's eyes.
