Love…
…will sneak up and surprise you. When you least expect it is when love arrives. It doesn’t care about what is convenient or what your circumstances are. True love comes when it comes and not a moment sooner or later.
From “The Truth About Forever” by Sarah Dessen
There is never
a time or place
for true love.
It happens
accidentally,
in a heartbeat,
in a single flashing,
throbbing moment.
Love…
…once known, lives always. Time may reduce the space someone loved in the past holds in the heart, but they are always there. Whether the learning from each one was what to do or not do, all of love’s experiences form the knowledge of how you know to love.
Taken from a poem called “Perfect Strangers” by Deep Purple
Can you remember my name
As I flow through your life,
A thousand oceans I have flown;
And cold spirits of ice;
I am the echo of your past.
I am returning the echo
of a point in time
Distant faces shine,
A thousand warriors I have known;
And laughing as the spirits appear;
Shadows of another day.
Love…
…brings a most beautiful insanity. Knowing all Earthbound loved ones are eventually lost to us here, or us to them, but loving anyway is delightful madness. Knowing fully this form of ‘crazy’ is life’s most valuable gift.
French novelist George San (Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin)
There
is
only
one
happiness
in
life,
to
love
and
be
loved.
Love…
…seeks to find its mirror reflection; something very similar but quite different. Grace is a balance of similarity and difference that allows the most peaceful and enduring love.
American Writer Todd Ruthman
It is the things
in common
that make
relationships
enjoyable,
but it is
the little
differences
that make
them
interesting.
Love…
…bridges differences. It crosses boundaries and has no use for the laws of man. It can not be caged or made to be. No one chooses who they love and only a fool will tell you otherwise. Love arrives when and where love chooses.
American author and professor emeritus William W. Purkey
You’ve gotta dance
like there’s
nobody watching,
Love like you’ll
never be hurt,
Sing like there’s
nobody listening,
And live like
it’s heaven on earth.
Love…
…is in my heart; a smoldering glow keeps me warmer than occasional leaping flames. Loving in peace is richer than passion alone. Harmony in my heart is healthier than turbulence of a jagged love.
French aristocrat, writer, poet, and aviatorAntoine De Saint-Exupery
And now here
is my secret,
a very simple secret;
it is only with the heart
that one
can see rightly,
what is essential
is invisible to the eye.
Love…
…is never constant. It ebbs and flows between crescendo and diminishment. Every story of the heart has its moments of greatest love and those that contain the least amount. It is between the extremes where meaning is found.
English writer, painter and freedom fighter D. H. Lawrence
Love is
the flower of life,
and blossoms
unexpectedly
and without law,
and must be plucked
where it is found,
and enjoyed
for the brief hour
of its duration.
