Inexpressible Magnificence

My Love…
A few touching songs are in the realm of my feelings. A striking sunrise occasionally comes close. Beautiful flowers can almost express my heart. So can a happy child at play. I love you with a near inexpressible splendor.

Sacrifice, Determination and Kindness

My Love…
Only with understanding and forgiveness have you and I found the grace of the deep love we share. We both almost gave up in the early days, but we persevered. Love started it all, but sacrifice, determination and kindness kept us together.

From “Juliet Immortal” by writer and actress Stacey Jay
Editorial2_4 LLD three editReal love has little to do
with falling.
It’s a climb up the rocky face
of a mountain, hard work,
and most people are too selfish
or too scared to bother.
Very few reach the critical point
in their relationship that summons
the attention of the light
and the dark, that place
where they will
make a commitment
to love
no matter
what obstacles
or temptations
appear in their path.

Never Meant Anything As Much

Love…
… of the lasting kind is uncommon and rare. It’s not difficult to find someone who tells you they love you. It’s very difficult to find someone who actually means it. My darling, I have never meant anything as much as “I love you”.

Only Sensible Way to Love

Love…
…can be unavoidably insane when the emotion is deep and true. To carry a flame for a person one hasn’t seen in years and years is crazy. But I’d rather be thought an unwise and silly fool than to give up the love in my heart I carry for you.

French playwright, novelist, and screenwriter Françoise Sagan
1252715002mh84sn1I have
loved
to the point
of madness;
that which
is called
madness;
that which
to me,
is the only
sensible way
to love.

Whispering Your Name

Love…
…began whispering your name to my heart soon after we first met. At first I did not listen, but in time the voice grew deep and strong, just like how I love you. Maybe one day we will be together.

Misty Rains Coming Softly

Love…
……overflows and pours out from me. My happiness is evident to anyone. I am profoundly and completely in love. After our years together, what I feel for you grows deeper and richer with each passing day.

Malagasy proverb from the island of Madagascar

love
be
like
the
misty
rains,
coming
softly,
but
flooding
the
river.

Love Spoken

Love…
…spoken as a child was “I like you”; as teenager as “love ya”; in the 20’s with “I love you”; when 30-something “I love you with all I am”; middle-aged 40’s as “I will always love you” and now in my 50’s I say “I love you even though you’re no longer here”.

No Matter How Painful

Love…
…remains deep and true. For you I would give up my future and even my life without hesitation. Through your illness I will stand by you, be with you and hold you. Nothing can take me away from you… NOTHING.

From “Dear John” by American novelist Nicholas Sparks.

through it allI finally
understood
what true
love meant.
…love meant that
you care for
another person’s
happiness more
than your own,
no matter how
painful
the choices
you face
might be.

My Heart Became Tuned

Love…
… teaches difficult lessons. Had love only found me once before, I would not have been adequately taught how to love you to the best of my ability. It was in loving and losing, in trial and failure that my heart became tuned to love you at its best.

I Day Dream of You

Love…
…oh, my love of long ago, please don’t select your words cautiously or second guess sharing your feelings. You are there. I am here. That’s where life placed us. Our real and true selves are the only gifts we have to give one another.

From a poem titled “Daydream” by Cassie McNair
DaydreamDust-slider-700x466EDITWhenever I day dream,
and day dream I do,
in my secret garden,
I day dream of you.
I day dream of you,
in a faraway land;
embracing me tight
and holding my hand.
Holding my hand,
and touching my face.
Just you and me,
in this peaceful place.
