Making my heart ache
I stumbled upon this .gif yesterday and it hit me pretty badly.
It's an extract from the movie The Help that I recently saw at the movies and which really made me cry out loud so much and I can't even remember when I last cried that much. Not because it's all sad or not good but because it's beautiful and emotional and filled with love.
