It makes the Heart Move.......

I remember having a very interesting and enlightening conversation with my youngest son when he was four years old. We were looking through one of those Aesop fables stories and I thought, “Hmm, I wonder what a four-year-old’s definition of love might be. So I said, what do you think love is?” And he looked at me with these beautiful black eyes and said, “Love is what makes the heart move’. I thought that answer was better than something I could come up with, and I said, “So why is love something that makes your heart move?” And he said, “I love you, Omma, and I want to hug you and I want to kiss you and I want to be with you. And my heart moves me to just want to be with you.” I thought, what an incredibly beautiful answer.......... Injin
