When I watched Aladdin as a kid, I always wondered why Jasmine hesitated before taking his hand. I understand now. It opens a door–a door that’s both terrifying to walk through and impossible to close.462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrNgd8RI9a

I gaze downward. The land below us is a palindrome of the night sky above us. It really does feel like the top of the world.462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMKy8m3VDr

You’re all that matters.462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAzwo7pqBJ
I rest my cold fingers on your warm palm. Your hand closes over mine. We look at each other. We look down.462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJlKUs6tgk
And we jump.462Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WpHNlS05R
