Love…
…is waking up with a simple thought about you, a remembered moment or a future anticipated one. Those morning thoughts, memory glimpses and wishes stir into kaleidoscope of hope for you in all its shades of past, present and future.
Scottish author, poet and minister George MacDonald
If instead
of a gem,
or even a flower,
we should
cast the gift
of a loving thought
into the heart
of a friend,
that would
be giving
as
the
angels
give.
Love…
…is knowing I can depend on you. When I need help you’re always willing to lend a hand. When I need someone to listen you open your ears, heart and mind to me. As good as our love is, our friendship is even better.
French Romantic composer and writer 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…
… Love is a sense that comes without doubt and question; a simple, but certain knowing. There is graceful comfort in knowing there is true love in your heart for me.
Contemporary Italian writer C. Joybell C.
We have to allow ourselves to be loved
by the people who really love us,
the people who really matter.
Too much of the time,
we are blinded by our own pursuits
of people to love us,
people that don’t even matter,
while all… the people who do love us
have to stand on the sidewalk
and watch us beg in the streets!
It’s time to put an end to this.
It’s time for us to let ourselves be loved.
Love…
… between two compatible people can improve happiness and enhance joy; lighten burdens and ease pain; bring solace to disappointment and consolation to failure. Like sugar in tea, love makes life sweeter.
Contemporary American Author of literature & fiction, Jodi Picoult
Love is not an equation,
it is not a contract,
and it is not a happy ending.
Love is the slate under the chalk,
the ground that buildings rise,
and the oxygen in the air.
It is the place you
come back to,
no matter where you’re headed.
Love…
…when chased, runs; when pushed away, departs; when ignored, vanishes. But when embraced, lives; when held close, grows; when acknowledged, shows itself.
Taken from a poem found on-line – “Gratitude” by ‘xJessibel’
My world wasn’t much,
Not at least till you came along.
Your kind words lifted me up,
You taught me to always be strong.
I can’t promise it will be easy,
I can promise it will be long.
But together… we can make it.
Together we can keep strong.
Love…
…cannot be bought or stolen or given. It cannot be avoided or denied. Love is the beautiful, wonderful, mysterious mortar that binds two souls together.

Do what makes you
Happy.
Be with who makes you
Smile.
Laugh as much as you
Breathe
and Love as long as you
Live.
Love…
…is the knowing you’ll be there if I need you to comfort me in times of sadness, care for me if I am sick, encourage me if I am down or just sit quietly with me and let time pass.
Thought by German philologist Max Muller
A flower
cannot blossom
without sunshine,
and man
cannot live
without love.
Love…
…from a simple view is nothing in particular, but everything in general. It is a delicate spice that flavors every part of living: sadness or happiness, joy or grief, pleasure or pain, delight or fear. Love makes the good better and the bad easier to bear.
Indonesian College Student Angel Flonis Harefa
There will always
be a reason
why you meet people.
Either you need them
to change your life
or you’re the one
that will
change theirs.
Love…
…for you has grown into a feeling that is mostly calm and peaceful. The jittery nerves that came at first were exciting but not completely comfortable. The groove we have settled into now feels deep, lasting and good.
“The Question” by Conor MacFarlane
What can be received
But never stolen?
Can be sought
But never sold?
Can be learnt
But never taught?
Can be felt
But never touched?
Love.
I love…
…your soft hands and the gentle way you touch me. Such tenderness can only come from a deeply kind and compassionate heart.
Taken from “ONE MOMENT LONGER” by Jim Nolan
May I embrace you
One moment longer
So that hugging
Becomes Holding.
May our brief touches last
One moment longer
So that aching
Becomes Caressing.
May my heart be in the presence
Of your heart
One moment longer
So that longing
Becomes Loving.
