S: If you know that when you fall, that there is someone to catch you, that is happiness in love.
A: How do you know that they will catch you?
S: Because when you slip along the ice, they hold your hand tight, they hold you tight in the cold. They would rather fall with you then let you go.
A: You trust so much.
S: Whatever I say, I believe in the goodness of those close to me and their love.
A: You have curated people very carefully.
S: I made mistakes. I was with the people that are false. But when The Tiger opens his heart, he never fears. My duty is bravery.
A: And you?
S: Nobody around me can fall. This hand is strong. I have been a nurse, a carer, a counsellor, a therapist, an advocate, a teacher, an organiser, a babysitter, a playmate. Everything. Love has taught me.
A: Well, you have done the work. Now you have one that thinks of you, that looks out for you, that looks over you, that cares for you.
S: Our choice, our judgement. It has been proven right. One recognised what was within and I also saw what was in their heart. The heart that is true – a rarity in this world of deceit and hate.
