What love is,

“Don’t you remember? When I asked you one day what love is, you told me “Love depends on the sighs of your heart. The more you love, the bigger the sighs!”

The two women looked at each other for a moment. Mom didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. As she stooped down to hug her child she did a little of both.

“Mom, every time you hold me I sigh. When you and Daddy come home from work and hug each other, you both sigh. I knew I would find the right puppy if it sighed when I held it in my arms,” she said.

Then, holding the puppy up close to her face she said, “Mom, he loves me. I heard the sighs of his heart.”

Close your eyes for a moment and think about the love that makes you sigh.
