Love…
…is driving home from the gym just when the first light of a new day begins to show on the horizon as thoughts of you come to mind… and I smile.
From song “Love (Can Make You Happy)” by Jack Sigler Jr.
Wake up in the morning
with the sunshine in your eyes
And the smell of flowers
blooming fills the air.
Your mind is filled
with the thoughts
of a certain someone
that you love;
Your life is filled
with joy when she is there.
Love…
…makes me a little goofy sometimes when we kiss. Right after it’s as if I’ve become slightly intoxicated with a momentary lack of awareness of where we are.
From song ” I Said My Pajamas” by Eddie Pola and George Wyle
I climbed up the door
and opened the stairs,
Said my pajamas
and put on my prayers,
Then I turned off the bed
and crawled into the light
All because
you kissed me goodnight!
Love…
…is thinking of you in the morning after I first get up and at night as I am going to sleep. It is a casual thought of you at lunch time and when driving home. At random moments all throughout my day you are on my mind, always hoping you are well and going good.
Writer and spiritual leader Rabbi Julius Gordon
So until we meet again,
I am thinking of you
Always;
I love you;
I wish you were here…
In my arms.
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…
…brings easy sensing of what one’s beloved feels. Happiness spills, sadness trickles, joy drips and grief drops from one person to the other as the border of separated emotions is no longer clear when “one” out of “two” is created.
Lebanese-American artist, poet, and writer Kahlil Gibran
Love one another,
but make not
a bond of love:
Let it rather be
a moving sea
between the shores
of your souls.
Love…
… IS! That says what I feel clearer than any quantity of words can.
Brazilian lyricist and novelist Pablo Coelho
Regardless of whether we love
once,
twice,
or
a dozen times
in our life,
we always face a brand-new situation.
Love can send us to hell or paradise,
but it always takes us somewhere.
We simply have to accept it,
because it is what nourishes our existence…
Love…
…and its true meaning only now do I get first real glimpses of. Before I mistook neediness, wanting, fantasy, longing, yearning and craving to be love when actually such is its opposite. As children learn, love’s meaning is slowly being revealed to us.
English novelist, poet, playwright and painter D. H. Lawrence
Those that go
searching for love,
only manifest
their own loveless-ness.
And the loveless
never find love,
only the loving find love.
And they never
have to seek for it.
Love…
…is expressed in a volume of meaning without a single word spoken during a hug that lingers when we haven’t seen each other in several days.
Taken from “Love Defined” by Matt Dubois
What is love,
but an emotion,
So strong and so pure,
That nurtured
and shared with another
All tests it will endure.
What is love,
but a force
To bring the mighty low,
With the strength
to shame the mountains
And halt time’s ceaseless flow.
Love…
…does not always shout its presence or create a swirl of passion. Some of its best moments are quietly satisfying. There is no greater comfort than being your ordinary self with someone you love.
Saying by a writer unknown
Meeting you
was fate;
becoming
your friend
was a choice,
but falling
in love
with you
was beyond
my control.
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.
