More Is Said Silently

I love…
…how our eyes make contact sometimes and hold each other in a gaze for a few seconds. More is said silently then than can often be expressed in words.

American preacher, author and writer Leroy Brownlow
There
are
times
when
silence
has
the
loudest
voice.

Mutually Satisfying Weirdness

I love…
…having a simple meal like soup or a sandwich while we talk about whatever pops up. We never seem to lack for something to talk about that we are both interested in.

American author Robert Lee Fulghum
We’re all a little weird.
And life is weird.
And when we find someone
whose weirdness
is compatible with ours,
we join up with them
and fall into
mutually satisfying weirdness
and call it love… true love.

The Full Value of Joy

I love…
…that you invite me to do things and don’t always wait for me to ask you. Even when I don’t or can’t do something you’ve invited me to, it always means a lot that you ask.

American writer Samuel Clemens aka Mark Twain
To get
the full
value of joy
you must
have someone
to divide
it with.

A Simply Unique Style

I love…
…your simple sophistication that allows you to be ‘classy’, yet never appear to try to place yourself above others. It is an uncommon combination.

Attributed to many, but author is actually unknown
Being classy is NOT
about being stuck up,
but more so about
having a simply unique style
that will never be forgotten.
To be classy is to have respect;
respect for others,
respect for elders
and most of all respect for yourself.

Something Quite Substantial

I love…
…the little things you do like a kind glance at the right moment, an encouraging word when things are tough for me, patience even when you don’t understand what I am going through or even a simple email to say good night or good morning. All together they sum to something quite substantial.

Eighteenth Century English poet and philosopher Samuel Taylor Coleridge
The happiness of life
is made up of
minute fractions;
the little soon
forgotten charities
of a kiss or smile,
a kind look,
a heartfelt compliment,
and the countless infinitesimal
pleasurable
and genial feeling.
