“What is love?” the daughter asked as they walked together hand in hand
The mother had to think a moment..
This question coming sooner than she planned.
How do you explain love to a young child she thought
as her daughter anxiously awaited…
How do you explain something so simple
that can be so complicated?
Suddenly a gentle mist fell from the sky and her anxieties disappeared
for as they continued walking in the rain the answer became clear.
“Love comes in many shapes and sizes.” she said
“It’s not easy to explain…
It’s like you’re always walking in the sunshine
even when it rains”
As the rain continued it’s gentle decent
She held her daughter’s hand a little tighter…
“No matter what is happening in your life,” she said,
“Love makes it all a little brighter.”
“Once a person you love is in your life.
It’s knowing everything about them.
It’s wondering what your life was like before
and how you'd live without them.”
