Caring - Committment - Communication = LOVE

Caring about the other's welfare and *feelings*..

Committment to monogamy, and the relationship.

Communication...to clear misunderstandings and move back to the Love...

yay

Just love this emo!!

"When the one man loves
the one woman and the
one woman loves the one
man, the very angels desert
heaven and come and sit in
that house and sing for joy".

- Brahma Sutra

with whom we never laugh"

To love is to
admire with the heart;
To admire is to
love with the mind."

of love is not diamonds

It is Focused Attention"

Something I came across some time ago

Love, my children, is a god, young and beautiful and winged.
That's why he delights in youth and pursues beauty
and gives wings to the soul.
And he can do greater things than Zeus himself.
He has power over the elements, he has power over the stars,
...
The flowers are all Love's handiwork.
These trees are his creation.
He is the reason why rivers run and winds blow.
...
There is no medicine for Love, nothing you can drink
and nothing you can eat and no magic spell that you can say.
The only remedies are kissing and embracing and lying down together...
Longus (3rd century AD)
Daphnis and Chloe rose

one from Dante:


One day, to pass the time away, we read
of Lancelot— how love had overcome him.
We were alone, and we suspected nothing.

And time and time again that reading led
our eyes to meet, and made our faces pale,
and yet one point alone defeated us.

When we had read how the desired smile
was kissed by one who was so true a lover,
this one, who never shall be parted from me,

while all his body trembled, kissed my mouth.
Dante (1265-1321)
InfernoV.82-142
Translated by Allen Mandelbaum

and the Incomparable Satchmo had that to say:


Give me a kiss before you leave me
And my imagination will feed my hungry heart
Leave me one thing before we part
A kiss to build a dream on
. . .
Give me your lips for just a moment
And my imagination will make that moment live
Give me what you alone can give
A kiss to build a dream on.
Louis Armstrong (1951)

A very old, very simple, very common, very true saying:

If you love something, let it go.
If it comes back, it is yours.
If it doesn't, it never was.

No, it's not even a old currant picture........ it was in my 'grape period'....back in 2001 when I still had a sparkle in my one good eye and ladies swooned if I honoured them with a smile!

Now I'm in my 'grope period' - I try to grope ladies, but they run away as I shuffle hopefully in their general direction!
