another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty,

by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident.

we find ourselves collecting around us a small number of acquaintances, some of
whom we positively dislike, and at the same time make barriers between
ourselves and those nearest to us.
