Both shade and light
And a wedding ring
And even an orchard of olive and fig trees.

Because she is my body.
I return because she is my nation.

"Do you know why hugs are so beautiful?
Because the right side of you does not have a heart, so it is empty, and when you hug you will have a heart on both sides."
