We are shaped and fashioned by what we love.


~Goethe

Spirit Dancer 01-27-2013 05:05 AM

Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.
–Charles Swindoll

The type of hugging I recommend is the bear hug. Use both arms, face your partner and perform a full embrace.

“When we're incomplete, we're always searching for somebody to complete us. When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment. Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.”

― Tom Robbins

“Beauty, which is what is meant by art, using the word in its wildest sense, is, I contend, no mere accident to human life, which people can take or leave as they choose, but a positive necessity of life, if we are to live as nature meant us to; that is, unless we are content to be less than men”. ~ William Morris

Trev 01-27-2013 09:30 AM

"It just ain't possible to explain some things. It's interesting to wonder on them and do some speculation, but the main thing is you have to accept it-take it for what it is, and get on with your growing."
~Jim Dodge

"A man can never hope to be more than he is if he is not first honest about what he isn't."
~Don Williams, Jr.

"If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of the potential, for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disappoints, possibility never. And what wine is so sparkling, what so fragrant, what so intoxicating, as possibility!"

~Soren Kierkegaard

Talon 01-27-2013 02:38 PM

Young love is a flame~...very pretty,
often very hot and fierce,
but still only light and flickering.
The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals,
deep-burning..unquenchable.


~Henry Ward Beecher

Now that I know what I know, I know I'll always love you
Now that I see what I see I see it will always be
Now that I got what I got I know I had it all along

And I'll be your ground if you'll be my muse I can tie on to
You follow me and I'll follow you

justanolecowboy 01-27-2013 05:13 PM

Don't look for love, let love find you. That's why it's called falling in love, you don't force yourself to fall, you just do.

KCBUTCH 01-27-2013 06:29 PM

A fearful man searches with eyes of doubt, looking for what he perceives to be lacking,
For a life he believes is unreachable, for a moment incomprehensible.
he tells himself, I cannot, I wont, I dont.

A wise man finds himself- there were only barriers of which he had not yet awakened to with in him.
The friendship he was seeking-he found by giving
the Love he wanted was discovered by loving
The life he longed for came about by living it.
He then knew he always could, He always would and he does...

A relationship between two people should be among many other things like the relationship between the hand and the eye...if the hand gets hurt - the eye cries - and if the eye cries - the hand wipes its tear.... (just a thought)

A useless life is but an early death.

The most important of life’s battles is the one we fight daily in the silent chambers of the soul.


You will have the rest of your life to remember. But what you have to remember depends on what you do today.

"The more you look at fear from an objective standpoint, as if you were not in your body-bring it out, hold it to the light, examine why it's making you crazy-the more power you have to eradicate the fear of it you are harboring." - Jackie Lapin

in time of daffodils

in time of daffodils(who know
the goal of living is to grow)
forgetting why,remember how

in time of lilacs who proclaim
the aim of waking is to dream,
remember so(forgetting seem)

in time of roses(who amaze
our now and here with paradise)
forgetting if,remember yes

in time of all sweet things beyond
whatever mind may comprehend,
remember seek(forgetting find)

and in a mystery to be
(when time from time shall set us free)
forgetting me,remember me

~ee cummings

My work has been about making a record of my life that no one can revise. I photograph myself at times of trouble or change in order to find the ground to stand on in the change. You get displaced, and then taking self portraits becomes a way of hanging onto yourself. ~ Nan Goldin

look, experience, examine,
and for once,
just once,
Understand...

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.

― Anaïs Nin

“Relationships are treated like Dixie cups. They are the same. They are disposable. If it does not work, drop it, throw it away, get another. Committed bonds (including marriage) cannot last when this is the prevailing logic. Most of us are unclear about what to do to protect and strengthen caring bonds when our self-centered needs are not being met.”

― Bell Hooks, All About Love: New Visions
