Myriad ways of love

 

Love is expressed in myriad ways. 

Some show it by buying flowers while some just ask if you reached your destination. 

The truth of the depth of this emotion lies deep inside the heart and it may / may not spew out.

My aunt (mom’s elder sister) passed away about 2 years ago and she was bedridden for some years before her death.

This 75+ year old was tended by her 85+ year old husband in his typical military fashion. She never smelt bad, her bed had no ants and she did not get bed sores.

He now lives alone. 

And in his bathroom still remain her bindis. 

Never to be removed….

Placed there years ago when my aunt would have still been able to waddle into the bathroom for her own showers. 🥲

Love is … what works best for the people involved.
