"You thought love was romantic gestures, but it’s actually right in between the big moments. It’s that day to day familiarity that nobody but they get to have with you. It’s about realizing that you are so incredibly known and still loved.
It’s in the boring life moments, the absence of drama, the absence of a need to worry about their intentions. They are there. You are there.
Love is in that level of familiarity that breeds a true connection, one that strengthens over time." - Thought Catalog
Good morning world! In the first hour of my Ethics class and multi-tasking (trying to). Read something this morning which i think is somewhat true. Love in people to people relations. Love can strengthen over time. (or maybe I am just being more aware of the love that has been shown to me)
Love is my dad getting my fish soup(no bitter gourd, no noodles just soup, add milk) lunch order wrong 3 weeks in a row and on the 4th week, me just saying fish soup being sufficient. He got my order right!
Love is my mum insisting on massaging my head and my back because she knows i'm feeling unwell. (Love is also me allowing my mum to try weird massage/TCM techniques on me!!! haha)

My brother taking juice and me just stealing/drinking his juice all the time. Not only with my family, with my friends, especially. Exchanging looks to acknowledge an instance that took place; a fond memory, when some one else is talking; when a trigger takes place.
one that strengthens over time
And the more I know you, the more you know me. The more we bother to. Will not our stars align? Will not the lines connect the dots in our life?
