At One With Each Other

Love…
…is deep and true when one can realize being daily with the person of their affection is not necessary for love to survive. To bear that weight in one’s heart gladly at a distance is a certain mark of a mature and healthy love.

Victorian novelist Mary Anne Evans under pen name George Eliot

greater thing
is there
for two
human souls
than to feel
that they
are joined…
to be at one
with each other
in silent
unspeakable
memories.

Forever

Love…
…in its richest form is rare. If it touches you, decades later its mark will be felt even if long ago you lost the one in your heart. True love really does last forever.

Taken from a poem posted on http://www.booksie.com/ by Barbarolvr93
young-loveForever in me,
you will be.
Forever my love,
sent from above.
Forever in my life,
you are mine.
Forever in my eyes,
you will always shine.
Forever my star,
seen from afar.
Forever my soul,
you make me whole.
You are the one,
I will love, forever.

Without Expectation

Love…
…is never, never wasted. It benefits the bearer even when affections are not returned. Life without loving is barely worth living.

American author, motivational speaker and professor Leo F. Buscaglia
giving love EDITLove is always
bestowed
as a gift,
freely,
willingly,
and without
expectation.
We don’t love
to be loved;
we love
to love.

Things I Cannot See or Prove

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.

Lives In Perpetuity

Love…
…is proof of eternity; it confounds all notions of time; effaces all memory of beginning, all fear of an end. Loving well is the highest achievement of human existence and lives in perpetuity.

The Power of Love

Love…
…is the answer to the question: “What is the most powerful force on Earth? Every human and everything he or she does is shaped by love’s abundance or its lack.

From the song “The Power of Love” by Huey Lewis And The News
The power of love is a curious thing,
Make a one man weep,
make another man sing.
Change a hawk to a little white dove,
More than a feeling that’s the power of love.
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girl’s dream,
Make a bad one good make a wrong one right
Power of love that keeps you home at night.
You don’t need money, don’t take fame
Don’t need no credit card to ride this train.
It’s strong and it’s sudden
and it’s cruel sometimes,
But it might just save your life.
That’s the power of love.

Love Is As Love Does

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.

Ripple Through Time

Love…
…echoes forward through generations. Though my time was long ago, I wrote down what was in my heart and left it behind. My words ripple through time to others who will understand my love for you.

Written by Elizabeth Barrett to Robert Browning May 6, 1846
I have been drawn back into life
by your means and for you…
and I think of you with
an unspeakable gratitude always!
No other could have done this for me –
it was not possible,
except by you.
Wholly
and ever
yours I am.

Frozen In Time

Love…
…can reach through time as if a year is a day. First true loves never fade and though decades may pass the one who first found their way into a heart remains safe there: a young teenage face perfectly clear in mind; frozen in time.

American fiction writer of seven novels Elizabeth Noble
Before
we
belonged
to
anyone
else,
we
were
each
other’s.

Patiently Waits

Love…
…comes through the miles clearly when I’m away. It’s a soothing comfort that gives me strength to know someone cares, hopes for my safety and patiently waits for my return.

An anonymous quote by a writer unknown
Let
love
come
to you.
Be patient.
In
fairy tales
they don’t
find each
other until
the last page.
