one
one is all it takes to move you on…
it could be a cup of coffee early in the morning to perk you up. a phone call. a smile. some good news. a promotion. a holiday. a gift. but nothing beats that one person to get you thru the most tumultuous day of your life. that one hug that makes everything okay. the rescuing hug. coz no matter how independent you think you are, life will always be a lot better having someone around.
everyone’s got a story to tell. everyone’s fighting a tough battle. it’s not necessarily measured by the tears they shed. look behind that sunny smile and you’ll see. if you looked long and hard enough, you’ll see that cloud behind the composed stare that deceives you.
scary and damaged. that’s how Meredith Grey put it. i guess that’s how we all are at the end of the day. a little bruised, a little tired, a little scary, a little pained, a little hurt, a little confused, a little troubled. then we pray for an incredibly huge miracle to come our way. maybe we don’t need something that spectacular. maybe all we need is one.
again, it’s the rescuing hug. from someone who’s strong and struggling, like you, so you can survive together.
