Give thanks for the rainbows, for the butterflies,
for all God's creatures - large and small,

and the whispered "I love you."

Most everything we do is habitual.

upon a definition of the word liberty;
and precisely the same difference
prevails today among us human creatures

Real love is never a selfish emotion.
If you want something from someone -
especially if that something is sex -
what you are feeling is not true love.
True love is about wanting happiness for the person you love -
and not about seeking happiness for yourself.
Fortunately, in most cases our own loving presence
is the greatest gift we can give to a person we love.
Nonetheless, the litmus test of love is knowing
we would choose never to see that person again
if we believed that distance would bring them greater happiness.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort
of feeling safe with a person;

knowing that a faithful hand will take and sift them,
keep what is worth keeping, and then,
with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.
- George Eliot

enabled poets to write their poetry,
but a kind of instinct or inspiration,

who deliver all their sublime messages
without knowing in the least what they mean.
