Love…
…”IS”; simply and unequivocally. There is no absolute proof it exists or a certain plausible explanation for how it works. With a knowing that exceeds rational thought there is no doubt; love was, is and shall be always.
Poet, fiction-writer and philosopher C. Joybell C.
Before,
I wanted
to say:
“I found love!”
But now,
I want
to say:
“I found a person.
And he belongs
to me and
I belong to him.

Love…
…has value above all. Everything else is either sought earnestly or unconsciously as a substitute for love or as distraction to cover the lack of it. Love is the wizard behind the curtain of all that is worthwhile.
Dutch priest, writer and copyist Thomas a Kempis
Love feels no burden,
regards not labors,
strives toward more
than it attains,
argues not of impossibility,
since it believes that it may
and can do all things.
Therefore it avails for all things,
and fulfils and accomplishes
much where one not a lover
falls and lies helpless.

Love…
…is assembled from every experience a person has ever known bundled up into one way of perception. Had a life not been as it was before one falls in love, chances are that love would not have happened.
Quote by a writer unknown/anonymous
I feel like
everything
in my life
has led me
to you.
My choices,
my heartbreaks,
my regrets.
Everything.
And when
we’re together,
my past seems
worth it.
Because if
I had done
one thing
differently,
I might never
have met you.

Love…
…grows by giving. The love we give away is the only love we keep. The only way to retain love is to give it away.(Elbert Hubbard)
Hungarian-born American composer Sigmund Romberg
A
love
song
is
just
a
caress
set
to
music.

Love…
…runs when chased, but will catch you if you stop running from it. To grab for love creates a barrier against its arrival. To give up on love makes you no longer its possible destination. Letting go and keeping hope makes for fertile ground for love to grow in.
Quote by American writer Carl S. Avery
Love enables you
to put your
deepest feelings
and fears
in the palm
of your partner’s
hand, knowing
they will be
handled
with care.

Love…
…including laughter nourishes the soul best. Humorous moments like making funny faces, being silly, telling jokes, giggling, you walking around with my big shoes on your tiny feet, me acting crazy like a monkey and such, strengthen the spirit.
Quote by a writer unknown/anonymous
The most
beautiful
thing is to
see a person
you love
smiling.
And even
more beautiful
is knowing
that you are
the reason
behind it.

Love…
…begins as “like” and if it grows steady and sure, love takes firm root. It’s possible to love and not like someone, but rarely is this a happy union. A couple who loves and likes one another are true friends and committed lovers.
French romantic composer, Hector Berlioz
It is so rare…
to find
a complete person,
with a soul,
a heart
and an imagination;
so rare for characters
as ardent and restless
as ours to meet
and to be matched
together,
that I hardly know how
to tell you what happiness
it gives me to know you.

Love…
…is a complicated and compelling mystery; a story everyone wants to have a happy ending. All love brings happiness; some stay happy and many don’t. It is the risk of it all that makes loving and being loved so precious.
From “Lucky” by English Novelist, Jackie Collins
Falling in love is like
getting hit by a truck
and yet not being
mortally wounded;
Just sick to your stomach,
high one minute,
low the next.
Starving hungry
but unable to eat.
Hot, cold, forever horny,
full of hope and enthusiasm,
with momentary depressions
that wipe you out.

Love…
…does not require the focus of the heart to be present to be strong and lasting. Mature and secure love lasts whether together or not. The willingness to love from a distance shows love’s greatest depth.
“The Physics of Love” by Charles Brasch
The mutual magnetism of love
Nullifies every other force
That acts upon two infected bodies.
Even gravity is weakened as
They leap obstacles,
ride on the commonest occasions
Six inches above the unbelieving ground.

Love…
… by itself, is never a burden. To think of it as an encumbrance is possible only when stirred with human failings such as doubt, insecurity, suspicion or deceit. Requited or not: lost or found; lasting or impermanent, love is always for the good.
15th Century Dutch writer Thomas à Kempis
Love feels no burden,
regards not labors,
strives toward more
than it attains,
argues not
of impossibility,
since it believes that it may
and can do all things.
Therefore it avails
for all things, and fulfils
and accomplishes much
where one not a lover falls
and lies helpless.
