Satellite relationship means a close secondary relationship outside the marriage which may or may not involve sexual intercourse, but which is valued for itself….When two persons in a partnership learn to look upon each other as separate persons, with separate as well as mutual interests and needs, they are likely to discover that outside relationships are one of those needs.

—Carl Rogers, on modern marriage (via psychotherapy)

parislemon: The magic of the age we live in: I’m sitting around on a Friday afternoon, drinking a beer and doing some email. Twitter alerts me that Johan Santana is on the verge of a no-hitter — the first in New York Mets history, mind you. Major League Baseball is forward-thinking enough to put live, historic look-ins online, so I can actually watch as well. I tweet out the link to others, and a father gets to watch the moment with his son.  Beautiful.
