We are taught to be independent, to keep going, to hold ourselves together. But there is something profoundly human about having a person whose arms become a safe place when words are no longer enough.
An embrace cannot solve everything, but sometimes it can tell us something we desperately need to hear: you don't have to be strong right now, you don't have to explain, you don't have to face everything alone.
In a world that often treats vulnerability as weakness, having somewhere, and someone, to fall into is not a luxury, it is a form of care.
