Love…
…a wildly misunderstood, although highly desirable, malfunction of the heart which weakens the brain, causes eyes to sparkle, cheeks to glow, blood pressure to rise and the lips to pucker.
American author and social commentator Fran Lebowitz
Romantic
love
is
mental
illness.
But
it’s
a
pleasurable
one.

Love…
… can’t be accurately explained. There are no words that tell the depth, size and strength of what is in my heart for you. It’s as impossible as trying to accurately describe the size of the universe. So, “I love you madly” will have to do.
Quote by an unknown anonymous writer
If you love
someone,
tell him or her.
Forget
about the rules
or the fear
or looking ridiculous.
What is
truly ridiculous
is passing up
on an opportunity
to tell someone
that your heart
is invested
in him or her.

Love…
…is fun with you around Christmas time. For years I put the holidays and all the decorations of the season away in the attic. With you I have rediscovered it all again. With a lighthearted childlike openness there is belief again in things I cannot see or prove.
Attributed to fictional character Kagirinai Sora, writer unknown
Laugh your heart out,
dance in the rain;
cherish the moment
ignore the pain.
Live,
Laugh,
Love,
Forgive
and Forget;
life’s too short
to live with regrets

Love…
…expressed in the simple touch of a hand; eyes connecting with mutual smiles soon after; a well of enjoyable conversation that seems to have not bottom. Affection, friendship and respect stirred together in a recipe of calm and peaceful adoration.
American educator, minister, author, and TV host Fred Rogers
Love isn’t a
state of perfect caring.
It is an active noun,
like struggle.
To love someone
is to strive
to accept
that person
exactly the way
he or she is,
right here and now.

Love…
…sparkled all around when last I saw you. The smile on your face was one of real happiness. Even the way you walked spoke love softly for anyone paying attention. I was. It is humbling to be loved so much.
19th Century German Chancellor Bismarck to his wife Johanna
You have
fanned
to life
again
the coal
that under
ashes
and debris
still glowed
in me…

Love…
…shines in a person’s eyes even when it is unspoken. A stranger can tell when love is alive between two people. In the way they look at each other volumes of silent meaning are expressed.
American psychiatrist and best-selling author M. Scott Peck
Love is
as love does.
Love is
an act of will
…both an intention
and an action.
Will also
implies choice.
We do not
have to love.
We choose
to love.

Love…
…is truest in simple things like a smile when one enters a room and sees the other; eyes momentarily locked with love spoken plainly without a single word being uttered.
From “A Man’s Requirements” by Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Love me Sweet, with all thou art,
Feeling, thinking, seeing;
Love me in the lightest part,
Love me in full being.
Love me with thine open youth
In its frank surrender;
With the vowing of thy mouth,
With its silence tender.
Love me with thy voice, that turns
Sudden faint above me;
Love me with thy blush that burns
When I murmur Love me!

Love…
…always make more of a person that they were before. Any person is a little kinder and softer when love takes up residence in the heart. It is a welcome visitor, sometimes invited, but always arriving unexpectedly.
American fantasy and romance writer Laurell Kaye Hamilton
Only love of a good woman
will make a man question
every choice, every action.
Only love makes a warrior
hesitate for fear that his lady
will find him cruel.
Only love makes a man
both the best he will ever be,
and the weakest.
Sometimes all in the same moment.

Love…
… is receiving beautiful words from the one with a uniquely special place in my heart: I will never abandon you. No matter what path our relationship takes. I believe to my core that you will never be mean to me. You enrich my life and are an extraordinary person that I am privileged to be close to – heart, mind and soul.
Found on-line by an anonymous author
If someone
would ask me
what a beautiful
life means,
I would lean
my head
on your shoulder,
hold you
close to me
and answer
with a smile,
“Like this.”

Love…
…simple and beautiful can be found watching a caring couple share a meal in a restaurant. The magic is in their almost continuous conversation, the near constant eye contact as they talk and the way they smile at each other: just like you and I!

When you’re lonely,
I wish you love.
When you’re down,
I wish you joy.
When you’re troubled,
I wish you peace.
When things are complicated,
I wish you simple beauty.
When things look empty,
I wish you hope.
