Gibran's letters to May Ziada

Gibran Khalil Gibran's affection for the writer May Zayada lasted for nearly twenty years without them meeting except in the foggy world of thought, spirit and imagination, as Gibran was residing in the west of the earth, and May was in its east, he was in America, and she was in Cairo. Gibran's love was not born of a look, then a smile, then peace, then words. Rather, it was a love that arose and grew through a funny literary correspondence and intellectual and spiritual debates that brought together two lonely hearts and two alienated souls, yet they were the closest relatives and the most passionate lovers.
It was very natural for the hero of this love to get to know each other through thought and publication at the beginning of this century, after both of them had become very famous. She expresses her admiration for his thought and style, and from here was the beginning, and then communication with messages in which each of them was looking for the soul of the other in his wakefulness and dreams.
