I used to equate love with measurementโsomething to be counted in fancy anniversaries, grand gestures, or the number of times someone said โI love youโ from dusk till dawn. As if affection could only be earned through exhaustion and audacious efforts. I once believed love was plain euphoriaโblaring, bold, and ever golden. As if it were built on infinite happiness, perfectly devoid of trials and tribulations.

There are rooms inside us where daylight never reaches, closets we keep swept with secrets, walls built out of fears and uncertainties, and fissures outlining the ceiling, revealing the cracks of our reality. Yet, to be loved at the highest count is to be seen even in those roomsโwithout needing to turn on the lights, yet still unfaltering in exploring your horizons.

To be loved at the highest count isnโt loud. It is the kind of quiet that doesnโt need explaining. ๐๐ต ๐ข๐ณ๐ณ๐ช๐ท๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฒ๐ถ๐ช๐ฆ๐ต๐ญ๐บ, ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ญ๐บ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ข๐ช๐ฏ๐ด ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ด๐ช๐ด๐ต๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต. It is being handed a cup of your favorite tea early in the morning without asking. Being remembered in silences, chosen in chaos, held in someoneโs prayers even when you're miles apart, being someone's safest place and their favorite thought. It is carried with the whispers of assurance. It lingers in a random gentle pat on your shoulders whenever you are swallowed by the ocean of your worries. It lives in a home without hints of nagging echoes; without reliving the shadows of your past mistakes; without having to experience any form of violence. It is being found adorable even when your energy shrinks and being reminded of the things you loveโnot quivered by he said, she said. ๐๐ต ๐ด๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ข ๐ญ๐ช๐ต๐ต๐ญ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ช๐ต ๐ฐ๐ง ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ข๐ถ๐ต๐ช๐ง๐ถ๐ญ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ.
To be loved at the highest count means you arenโt just an option but a constant answerโalways chosen over the silence, over the distance, over the long list of hindrances. Not because youโre whole, but because even in fragments of your imperfections, they still see home. It's the kind of love that doesnโt just see youโit understands you, celebrates you, and chooses you always, even when you're hard to hold.
When living becomes dull and lifelessโjust when the world becomes a broken field plowed by painโonly then did I see how love conquers it all. ๐๐ต ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ด ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ง๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ญ ๐ช๐ต๐ด ๐ฑ๐ข๐ด๐ด๐ช๐ฐ๐ฏโ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฃ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ต ๐ฌ๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ธ, ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฏ, ๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ธ๐ฉ๐บ.
