Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind.
"Pooh?" he whispered.
"Yes, Piglet?"
"Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's hand. "I just wanted to be sure of you." - A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh
As I was searching for today's quote, this simple, short conversation between these two characters struck me and made me think. It's true. Sometimes just holding someone's hand can make all the difference. Friendship, love, or just knowing someone is there for you, that simple gesture is a comforting reassurance.

ReplyDeleteI think there is just so much "cute" in the Winnie the Pooh stories. Just so cute and innocent.
