Tie Those Knots

May: On LoveMay 18Today's reflection was inspired by a quote from the video game Unravel Two.There will come a time when you reach a wall that only your partner has the strength to climb. Or you come to a crevasse that only you have the skill to leap across. They climb the wall, turn with a smile, and pull you up after them. You make it across to the other side and tell them to jump—to trust that you’ll pull your string, giving them the extra speed they need to get across.These strings—these bonds—do not hold you back. These bonds of love are sometimes the only thing you’ll have to make it out of those inevitable times of hardship and darkness. Because you’ll go through them, and your loved one and me and everyone else. Just don’t forget to tug your string, asking for help when you need it. And don’t forget to wait for that tug from someone else and be ready to offer your hand.Climb higher together. Build anew. And love, love, love.Reflection title: Tie Those KnotsCreative inspiration: Unravel TwoReflection Question: Have I been looking at my bonds all wrong—as though they were holding me back when really, they’re there to lift me up?
