I think we need daily reminders in life,
That it is the simple things that bring us the most joy.
It is the silent gestures,
The open hearts,
The warm eyes;
The ordinary moments.
The silence between yourself and others.
Those moments when your chests touch and the warmth between you expands.
It's the glances we don't take with each other through fear of being seen; not realising that that very act reveals everything.
It is the nervous moments,
The great risks of rejection when we don't know whether we'll be embraced or left in the hot/cold of our shame.
These are the moments that touch our spirit and plants the fire in our hearts.
It all leads back to love,
It's what we are.
Slow down,
Breathe,
It's okay to be seen.
You are so deeply loved.
