A wife says to her husband (or vice versa), Do you love me?Of course, he replies. I've been married to you for twenty years, haven't I?How satisfied would we be if we presented someone with a vintage wine and, upon asking his opinion of it, he replied, I'm drinking it, aren't I?Love still needs expression between those who share it

As soon as the love relationship does not lead me to me, as soon as I in a love relationship do not lead another person to himself, this love, even if it seems to be the most secure and ecstatic attachment I have ever experienced, is not true love. For real love is dedicated to continual becoming.

Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations. Don't over-analyze your relationships. Stop playing games. A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.
Leo Buscaglia

You have choice. You can select joy over despair. You can select happiness over tears. You can select action over apathy. You can select growth over stagnation. You can select you. And you can select life. And it's time that people tell you you're not at the mercy of forces greater than yourself. You are, indeed, the greatest force for you.

Love requires that we overcome the traditional and self-defeating fears that place distance between ourselves and others.

Love withers with predictability its very essence is surprise and amazement. To make love a prisoner of the mundane is to take its passion and lose it forever.
