Thank you, Wade. Hard to say. Some from personal experience, some from wishful thinking (like this one.)

The title for your piece here just came to me: "Loving Arms" - the famous Kris Kristofferson and Rita Coolidge duet....a classic, now.....

"your arms around me, my sweetheart, will suffice." - A pair of arms equals inner turmoil and brings peace. Very nice, Sharron!

Thank you, Caro. I think most of us seek comfort, and some are fortunate, indeed, to find it in someone else's loving arms.

Arms hold you, comfort at best. Age knows the rest is to comfort your heart. Love comes from many directions. Sometimes arms length. Sometimes wrapped in a bow. You are the present 🎁 . Just wanted you to know.
