The power of love can make a blind man see
Can bring a man to his knees

The power of love can make a sultan grieve
Can make a skeptic believe

The power of love is south of south
And scorches out all the doubt

The power of love is the name of names
And burns away all the pain

The power of love can make a gangster cry
Can make a loser try

The power of love can make a strong man weak
Can make a bigot meek

The power of love can make a coward brave
Can make a hero afraid

The power of love can make a miser give
Can make a dead man live

Lyrics by T-Bone Burnett

 

 

 

Love is an emotion that, at some point in our lives, we are destined to meet and allow ourselves to feel. Every one of us has been blessed and hurt by love; tremendous highs, incredible lows.....but there it is, standing sometimes right in front of us, no way around, but straight through.

If a child is denied love, then what can we hope for his or her future? The rest of their lives they will be longing to make up for the loss, and the caring, that is needed to produce a functioning human being who believes that the sky is the limit.

If love is something that we don't need,
then what weapon do we have to fight hate?

The heart is a very strange thing...it remembers pain and trys to overcome it, but so much of what we put in our minds is carried with us to our dying days. Hopefully, somewhere along the way, we can find peace and give the love that is needed.

Mankind has gone to war over love;
killed over love,
but is that love?

Love is a flower that constantly needs water,
nurturing, and sunlight.
If the flower is neglected it dies.

 

The best kind of love is love that is entered into with an open mind, not for the purpose of possessing, but a way to give and help enhance the other person, along the journey to knowledge, identity, and purpose.

I guess all of us strive for that knowledge,
that identity, and that purpose.
I hope you find yours but
learn to love yourself first.

Love is not the
Ordinary or the obscene or Violations of the heart, mind, and spirit but the
Extraordinary joys and happiness of life.
LOVE QUOTES
Solitary state. No! An Unbelievable union that is a Passionate & perpetual Exchange of
Respect, trust & honesty.

LOVE IS

...a pinpoint of light in the center of night's darkest sky. ...the strength to look inside for that which the world cannot give you. ...the will to climb over, crawl under or go around every obstacle between you and your dreams. ...hanging on to life when it's easier to let go. ...the gift of yourself to a world in sorry need of compassion. ...honoring your self-worth by virtue of your respect for humankind. ...the harmony you achieve when every joy, every pain, every smile and every tear, of every citizen on the planet, is also yours.
L O V E

"Love is a spirit of all compact of fire."

~William Shakespeare~

"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies."
~Aristotle~		 "Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end."
~ Germain de Stael ~
Love each day that you live.

 

To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic. Alphonse De Lamartine

"Love is not a matter
of counting the years
it's making the years count."

~Wolfman Jack Smith~

 
"Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things." ~Bible, Corinthians 13:4-7~
Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love, you will find that you are left holding only yourself."
~Leo Buscaglia~

 

It's our anchor to the universe,
our place in time, our proof that we exist,
our reason for existence.

 

Words spoken in love live forever in memory.

Love is the power that gives us wings to soar.
"Love is the only way to grasp another human being in the innermost core of his personality."
~Victor Frankel~
For twas not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. Twas not my lips you kissed, but my soul.
Judy Garland
"Love is what's left in a relationship after all the selfishness has been removed."
~Cullen Hightower~
"Love is a canvas furnished by Nature and embroidered by imagination."
~Voltaire~
...its true that Love cannot be described and it's unique to all of us; it can be the source of all your joy in life or it can be the source of all your misery in life.
AJ
"Love is a flame which burns in heaven, and whose soft reflections radiate to us. Two worlds are opened, two lives given to it. It is by love that we double our being; it is by love that we approach God."
~Aimmee Martin~
