"Closing your eyes would not make your problems disappear. Just because you don't think about the lingering issues, would not make them get resolved on their own. What needed to face, had to be faced. There was no other shortcut or simple way. One needed to hold responsibility."
Grandpa had said that to me. It was really a wonder how I would remember his teachings and words at the apt timing. They really went well with the situation around me.
My husband still held me, as if he feared I would run away. It was his natural way of holding me, one that made me want to drop my defenses.
Eshan's way of working with me, around me to make me comfortable had improved greatly over time. Now, he knew what to say and how. If he wanted to coax me, he did not need too many efforts. It would have scared me, but now it almost felt natural.
