Love thrives on good communication.
It can take many forms.
But what happens when you suddenly lose what was once your primary means of communication?
Jameson Hill's essay love means never having to say anything takes up that question.
Its read by Pedro Pascal.
He plays Oberyn Martell in Game of Thrones and Javier Pena in Narcos.
Hes starring now in King Lear on Broadway and in the new Netflix movietriple Frontier.
After dating Shannon for several months, I needed to say something to her, but I couldnt.
Its not that I was nervous or unsure of the phrasing, it's that I couldn't speak.
My lungs and larynx couldn't create the air pressure and vibrations needed to say the words floating around in my mind.
This is our reality.
I can't talk to Shannon about anything, not the weather or her day, or how beautiful she is.
Worst of all, I can't tell her that I love her.
This was never a problem in my previous relationships with women I thought I loved, or perhaps didn't love at all.
These women knew my voice.
They heard it every day, but they never knew what I was actually thinking.
