Wish We Were Butterflies

Love…
…makes me imagine what my mind care barely comprehend; what my spirit knows but has no knowledge where the certainty comes from. In the light of love pieces of my heart return I was barely aware were missing.

Nineteenth century English romantic poet John Keats
I almost wish
we were
butterflies
and liv’d
but three summer days;
three such days
with you
I could fill
with more delight
than fifty
common years
could ever contain.

A Spark in the Heart

Love…
… honest and true makes one far more than he or she is without it. It expands dreams, heightens desire, strengthens endurance and enriches possibility. Love is a spark in the heart that empowers the soul.

British philosopher and Nobel prize winner Bertrand Russell
If love
is to bring
all the good
of which
it is capable,
it must be
free,
generous,
unrestrained
and wholehearted.

Most Authentic Version

Love…
…makes me want to be a better person for you; not different from I truly am but the best rendition of the real me. Love’s inspiration brings an intention to be the most authentic version of myself that I am capable.

Brazilian lyricist and novelist Paul Choelho
When we love,
we always strive
to become
better than we are.
When we strive
to become better
than we are,
everything around us
becomes better too.
