My Love…
Through our ups that never seemed to last long enough and our downs that always lasted too long, I have loved you in a unordinary way. There is nothing common about my feelings for you.
From “Mating in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic” by Esther Perel
Love is a vessel
that contains
both security
and adventure,
and commitment
offers one
of the great
luxuries of life:
time.
Marriage is not
the end
of romance,
it is the beginning.
My Love…
If you live to be a hundred, I want to be a hundred minus one day. Then I won’t have to live a day without you. The longer we are together the more you are the reason for every breath I take.
From “The Book of Simple Human Truths…” by Molly Friedenfeld
Love and truth
are intimately
connected.
You cannot
have pure love
without
pure truth
and you cannot
have pure truth
without
pure love.
My Love…
I am still the person I was, yet much more. Through loving you the good within is made bigger and faults become smaller. The transformative ability of true love has the power of angels within.
From “Angel of Mine” by Monica, http://lovequotes.symphonyoflove.net
I look at you
looking at me,
Now I know why
the best things
are free.
How you’ve
changed
my world
You’ll
never know.
I’m
different now,
You’ve
helped me grow.
My Love…
My determination has always been strong; my will a formidable force. With aim and purpose I sculpted my life to match my desire. Then I discovered something more powerful: loving you. By what is in my heart I’m being made over.
American poet, painter, author, and playwright E.E. Cummings
Love
is the voice
under
all silences,
the hope
which has
no opposite
in fear;
the strength
so strong
mere force
is feebleness…
My Love…
My days of feeling left out and lonesome seem a million miles and two lifetimes ago. The years since we found each other and fell in love changed how my heart feels and my mind thinks. You plus me equals so much more than two.
English physician and natural philosopher John Bulwer
It
is
astonishing
how
little
one
feels
alone
when
one
loves.
My Love…
During the years we’ve shared I have grown far beyond who I used to be. Your love has been fertile ground for my growth; your tenderness the rain that sustained me; your faithfulness the nourishment for my blossoming.
From “Hai Darling!” by Badrul Hisham Shari
Love
stretches
your
heart
and
makes
you
big
inside.
Love…
…is beyond my ability to explain. But without doubt I know I love you. There’s concrete proof in my heart, mind and soul that will take a lifetime to unfold. Will you marry me?
American author, poet, and naturalist Diane Ackerman
Everyone
admits
that
love
is
wonderful
and
necessary,
yet
no
one
agrees
on
just
what
it
is.
Love…
…is a subject I long tried to make sense of. Success eluded me until I stopped trying. The answer arrived wrapped in an old red shirt and faded jeans you were wearing when we met.
American physician, activist and author Patch Adams
I
love
you
without
knowing
how,
why,
or
even
from
where…
Love…
…is a harsh teacher, but I bear no malice toward cupid’s mistaken arrows. Each grinding of my heart molded it to be ready for you. Through pain and heartbreak I was softened and made more perfect in my ability to love you.
From “Romeo and Juliet” by English Playwright William Shakespeare
Did
my
heart
love
till
now?
Forswear
it
sight,
For
I ne’er
saw
true
beauty
till
this
night.
Love…
…needs two. No matter how deeply one person feels about another, it is for naught unless the sentiments are returned in kind. Unrequited love is the all too common state that makes true love so sought after and rare.
American romance and fantasy author Phyllis Christine Cast (P.C. Cast)
True love
is not
a potion
one person
can swallow
and another
refuse to drink.
It happens
only when
the souls
of two join
together
to form
one.
