#hover

I'm one of those hovering mothers and I know it's really important to have an independent child, so I'm trying to back off, but it's hard. I love him so much, and he's so funny and cute to me. ↗

Nothing you do for children is ever wasted. They seem not to notice us, hovering, averting our eyes, and they seldom offer thanks, but what we do for them is never wasted. ↗

What I find very attractive, what I find sexual, are people who are unapologetic for who they are and comfortable with themselves.

And being who you are is a very attractive quality in a person. ↗

Laughter is day, and sobriety is night; a smile is the twilight that hovers gently between both, more bewitching than either. ↗

A reflection of an exact image is the closest thing to you-so that you can see it-but it's far enough away so that you really understand it. There is real life in this movie, but it hovers just an inch above reality. ↗

Between two worlds life hovers like a star, twixt night and morn, upon the horizon's verge. ↗
