Small Moments, Forever Memories

I’ll never forget the way he smiled at me under the morning light—the kind of smile that felt like coming home.

We spent our first anniversary hiking up a hill covered in wildflowers. Halfway through, it started drizzling. Instead of turning back, he took my hand and whispered, “Let’s dance in the rain.”

And we did.

There was also that quiet Tuesday—I was stressed over work, curled on the couch with unbrushed hair and tired eyes. He didn’t try to “fix” anything. He just sat next to me, wrapped me in his favorite sweater, and read his book while I rested my head on his shoulder.

It’s not always grand gestures.
Sometimes… it’s the way he makes tea exactly how I like it.
Or how he still kisses my forehead before leaving every morning.

We’ve built a universe out of these tiny moments—
and I’d relive each one, again and again.

Love isn’t just about the beginning.
It’s about every second you choose to stay.   —— L.
