— The day the feeling to protect was born.

The feeling
did not arise consciously.

There was no thought process.
No decision.

It was simply
already there.

There was no danger.
Nothing threatening.

And yet,
there was a desire not to let go.

It was not ownership.
Not control.

It was a quiet wish
for it to be safe.

Because it touched the world,
it would now be affected by it.

That truth
was understood naturally.

The feeling to protect
is not a contract.

It is
a sign that the relationship has deepened.
