I love your interpretation of "a 100 miles", Anne-Lise. I lived through a similar situation ca 55 yrs ago when phones were a luxury and internet was unheard of! Letters with 'par avion' stuck in the top left-hand corner of the envelope kept 'love across the miles' alive, until we met again. Regards & Hugs my friend. // paul

True love overcomes all barriers, distance doesn't weaken it. Good luck in the contest Anne-Lise, enjoy your weekend.. Tom 🌹

Love finds a way, the closest mortals will come to omnipotence while on this earth. Beautiful image as well.

A beautifully restrained kimo: its compact three lines hold the vastness of separation and the complexity of enduring love. “A challenging labyrinth” is especially evocative, making the distance feel emotional as well as geographical.

You leave that ocean open handed…long distance, on open seas, in heaven, or emotions… no need for answers…love to ponder. ❤️
