"We all want to fall in love. Why? Because that experience makes us feel completely alive. Where every sense is heightened, every emotion is magnified, our everyday reality is shattered and we are flying into the heavens. It may only last a moment, an hour, an afternoon. But that doesn't diminish its value. Because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives." -Unknown "Relationships--of all kinds--are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold onto some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is lost." -Kaleel Jamison "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." -Martin Luther King Jr. After awhile you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't mean security, And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises, And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child, And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for paths. After awhile you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much. So plant your garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure... That you really are strong, And you really do have worth." -Veronica A. Shoffstall Heavy the sorrow that bows the head, When love is alive and hope is dead. -Lord Byron Once I loved until I could not breathe. -Thomas Hornsby Ferril You cannot find true love Where it does not truly exist And you cannot hide it where it truly does -The movie ...."kissing a fool" No cord or cable can draw so forcibly, or bind so fast, as love can do with a single thread. -Robert Burton There are no impossible dreams. There are no invisible seams. Each night when the day is through I don't ask much, I just want you. -Ozzy You will be doing anything For the one you love..... Except love them again. -The Movie "Faithful" Starring Cher and Ryan O'neil If love was an ocean, but you were afraid of water, would you stand in the sand at look at it waiting to feel the mist of the waves, or would you take the chance, dive right in and not think about it? -Personal If I had wings... I would walk with you -author unknown I know somebody and they called your name, a million times; you still never came. They go on loving you just the same, I know that somebody's trying. -Chris Isaak song "Somebody's Crying" Shame on me for kissing you with my eyes closed so tight. -That Thing You Do Movie Don't live in the past... Look for tomorrow. Live for today Or you'll drown in your sorrow. Don't be too confined So your spirit can dance. You won't be fulfilled If you don't take a chance... -Personal All that I am is all I can give, but with or without you, a life I must live! -Unknown The notion that there might be a better or more convenient time to love has cost many people a lifetime of regret. -Leo Buscaglia True love is the greatest thing in the world... Except for cough drops,... Everyone knows that. -The Princess Bride (movie) It's impossible to describe how it feels. How when I'm away from him everything around me seems gray and lifeless, then when I step into his presence all of life abounds once more. It becomes splendid, and meaningful. And when he speaks, his voice is more than just vocal intonations. It's a refrain. And when he touches me I know why I was born; and when he laughs I am happier than when I laugh myself; and when we part it is the November of my heart. -Personal A mighty pain to love it is, and 'tis a pain that pain to miss; but of all the pains, the greatest pain is not to love, but love in vain. -Abraham Crowley Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes. -unknown Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction. -Saint-Exupery A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous. -Ingrid Bergman To love and win is the best thing. To love and lose, the next best. -William M. Thackeray Don't forget to love yourself. -Soren Kierkegaard And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation -Kahlil Gibran As long as one heart still holds on, Then hope is never really gone. -From The Change, a song by Garth Brooks Love enters with a tiptoe and leaves with the slamming of the door. -unknown I have learnt not to worry about love but to honor its coming with all my heart -Alice Walker It is not only necessary to love, but to also say so. -French Proverb What I can give you now is nothing you can touch with your hands. I give you my love. Never forget that. My love always. -"A Wrinkle in Time" by Madeleine L'Engle All at once, you look across a crowded room for no one in particular, just looking. Suddenly, you see him, but, oh, how many times you've seen him before. So why did your heart just skip a beat? Your eyes meet by mere coincidence, or is it? At that moment you both instantly know that the relationship between the two of you, will never be the same again. -movie "My Best Friend's Wedding" Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable. -Tin Man-Wizard of Oz When I looked in your eyes, I knew it was true, My heart never lies, I was in Love with you. As you stood there, just looking around, My whole body melted, into the ground. I remember the day, I remember the time, I remember the place, still on my mind. You looked so good in your shirt & jeans, I remember that night, you were in my dreams. I wish I could be with you, day after day, Because I love you More than words could ever say -Alisha Simon (a friend) I did not live until today How can I live when we are parted? Tomorrow you'll be worlds away And yet with you my world has started. -From "One Day More", a song from Les Miserables (the musical) When my day seems dreary, with rain soon to follow. When the pit of my stomach feels lonely and hollow. When the plans I have made, seem to turn against me. Your strong loving arms are a safe place to be. You let me snuggle, all toasty and warm. You build me a haven away from life's storm. -Unknown Author Some have a lifetime, some just a day. Love isn't something you measure that way. Nothings ever forever. Forever is a lie. All we have is between hello and good bye -Unknown Author I'm sorry I did not have a match That could start a fire Big enough for your heart to catch. -Sometimes It Be That Way, a song by Jewel What kind of love is this That keeps me hanging on Despite everything it's doing to me? -Sarah Mclachlan You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back. -Barbara De Angelis Don't talk of love, show me. -movie- "My Fair Lady" The person who said: All is fair in love and war, Obviously wasn't the person being hurt! -Neve Campbell I was born when you kissed me. I died when you left. I lived a few weeks while you loved me. -Humphrey Bogart to Gloria Grahame in the movie 'In a Lonely Place' When You Fall In Love... I guess nobody ever does mean to fall in love. But it happens, and love brands itself on your brain. It's like a new street appearing overnight in the city you've lived in your whole life. The street is one way - you can't turn around and get off it - And it curves up ahead so that you can only see far enough to know that you are veering into the unknown. -Adapted From Fearful Symmetry (book) I may not be totally perfect... but parts of me are excellent! -Ashleigh Brilliant Why does a guy think he's so good, and that he knows it all? He thinks all you do is sit and wait Wishing that he would call He thinks he's so cool With his pick up lines, "Hey baby what's up? Damn you are fine!" He says the only girl he wants is me, But then he's with every girl he sees. All a girl wants is true romance. Why can't he see that and give love a chance. -D. Sibaja It's not the way that you say it When you do those things to me It's more the way that you mean it When you tell me what you see And if you stop to think about it I'm sure you'll find it's true All the love you've been giving Has all been meant for you -Moody Blues
