When To Hold On?
When he reaches out, brushes your fingertips using his and takes hold of your hand across the table…
When you catch her gazing at you over the large steaming cup of coffee cradled in her hands while she’s about to take a sip…
When he looks up from something he’s working on and you glance at him at the same time, both of your eyes meet, then you smile a little and he grimaces a bit…
When she smiles really big and her eyes seem to sparkle as you hand her one of the books she’s been searching for in different branches of bookstores, then she says “thank you” like she’s singing it…
When you stick your face so close to his just to watch him sleep and all of a sudden, without opening his eyes, he kisses you on the lips…
When she hands you your vitamins and a glass of water, when she uses her own hanky to wipe seemingly invisible sweat trickling down the sides of your forehead…
When he pushes his plate to you so you could put there the unwanted piece of fat from the pork…
When you find love in the little moments of connection…
When your hearts hum the same song…
When your soul dances each moment you’re near each other, or even at just the sound of his voice…
That’s when!
In your experience, how do you know when to hold on to love?

Those are all so beautiful. Definitely reminds you of love and how it is when two people are in love.

Aw, your post reminds me of my husband. I miss him so much, he works abroad and has been there for 5 months already.
