This is what I want. I want people to take care of me. I want them to force comfort upon me. I want the soft-pillow feeling that I associate with memories of being ill when I was younger, soft pillows and fresh linens and satin-edged blankets and hot chocolate. It's not so much the comfort itself as knowing there's someone who wants to take care of you. Franny Billingsley
About This Quote

When people want to take care of you, they do so in a way that makes you feel comfortable, at ease. Often they do so in a way that evokes the sense of security that was missing when you were ill when you were younger. They take care of you by providing what is most comforting to you. This takes place when someone wants to take care of you. They are willing to put themselves out there for you, even if they are not necessarily getting anything back.
