A warm summer afternoon, a humble witness of a sincere moment, blushing on bodies of young lovers, radiating the environment with fond grace.

Stay still for a moment so you can feel soft breeze playing with your hair. You might hear a chirping sound of a cricket hiding in the grass. Now feel the embrace.

Being in love is one of the most blessed feelings we can experience in life. It finds us when we least expect it, and it enlightens our soul with pure magic.

Everything feels possible when you are in love. Love makes you brave and determined. It teaches you how to appreciate the moment when everything feels IDYLL.

Do you remember your first kiss? Well, I hope you do! And I hope the thought of it brought a smile to your face right now.
