One of the best feelings in life is being able to connect with a person quickly, and confide in him or her something that is on your mind.

And there is something to be said after all in the "family" connection as well. You know that quick conversation you have with a cousin or distant aunt, whom you don't really speak to that often, but who somehow completely understands your reasons for doing a certain thing. It's refreshing not to have to explain oneself a million times.

It's good...
