She added, 'I do think that a lot of us are vibrating on very different frequencies and it does feel kind of miraculous when we're able to find people we can even vibrate alongside us for even a time.' 'Cause we're always going to have moments of difficulty with communication and connection, because we define language differently...' 'But it does feel special and precious to find and then cultivate friendships and relationships that enrich our lives. It can feel like magic. I think it's so special,' Pedretti continued.
