Rooting for Him: The Quiet Strength of Love and Trust 🤍

I’ve never been the kind of woman who gets emotionally involved in someone else’s battles. But this time, it’s different. This time, it’s him — and somehow, his dreams, struggles, and hopes have become mine too.

When Love Expands

I care, but I don’t usually root. I don’t usually feel moved by someone else’s success — or failure.

But this time, it’s him.

For the first time, I feel something deep and unfamiliar — I’m rooting for him. Not just loving him beside him, but feeling like my heart is in the boardroom with him. Worrying, hoping alongside him.

Trust and Pride

Maybe this is what trust feels like.
Maybe this is what pride feels like — steady, quiet, and real.

Distance and Steadiness

He’s far away again.
He often has to be. And I don’t always love that part.

But I love who he is when he leaves — and even more when he returns.

Handling Hardships Together

Right now, he’s facing something unexpected.
Not his fault, just one of those unjust border dramas no one prepares you for.

And still, he’s steady. He handles it — and he handles me too. Softly. Honestly.

He makes space for my frustration, for my ache.
And somehow, it makes me trust him more.

Quiet Hopes

Today, I hope he gets his passport back.
I hope the story settles and the sky clears.
And I hope he comes back to the place he calls home — and the person who’s quietly, deeply rooting for him more than she ever thought she could. 🤍

You don’t have to be loud to be real.
