Holding hands may seem like an innocent gesture, but they show more than a simple interlocking of fingers. Your hands are one of the most essential parts of your body: you build with them, feed with them, hold with them, touch with them, fight with them; they are the tools of the human body. To take a hold of another’s hand is to break from living individually. It is to link yourself to another being, to momentarily entwine your life with another’s, to promise, for a moment, that you need not face the world alone. More simple, more aesthetically naive than other forms of affection, i.e kissing, hugging, sexing.., the act of holding hands is often trivialized in its true implications.

A person does not have to be behind bars to be a prisoner. People can be prisoners of their own concepts and ideas. They can be slaves to their own selves.

it amazes me how after all this time
i still feel exactly the same about him
almost four years since we’ve met
and he still puts the biggest smile on my face
i can truly say that i love him
we havent seen each other in some time
but we talked for hours last night
and it seemed like we never skipped a beat
if it wasnt for the distance between us, we would probably be together now
like as a couple
but none the less, im really looking forward to seeing him while im home for the summer :)
It’s that time of year again! #CAU #ClarkAtlantaUniversity (Taken with instagram)
