What’s my hand without your heart to hold?

My wish for us all is to love and adore ourselves just as much as we do everyone else!

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.

Love is what we’re born with. Fear is what we learned here.

Sometimes I feel like a kid wanting nothing more than to squeeze you tight and call you mine.

When love awakens in your life, in the night of your heart, it is like the dawn breaking within you. Where before there was anonymity, now there is intimacy; where before there was fear, now there is courage; where before in your life there was awkwardness, now there is a rhythm of grace and gracefulness; where before you used to be jagged, now you are elegant and in rhythm with your self. When love awakens in your life, it is like a rebirth, a new beginning.

Perhaps love is the process of my leading you gently back to yourself.

What’s the difference?’ I asked him, ‘Between the love of your life and your soulmate?’ ‘One is a choice, and one is not.’

Love, though said to be afflicted with blindness, is a vigilant watchman.

We’ve got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can’t just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it’s going to get on by itself. You’ve got to keep watering it. You’ve got to really look after it and nurture it.

There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.

Love is the will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s own or another’s spiritual growth.

I’m only ever in two places – with you or on the way.

I never thought love could be so deep, so wide, so open, so full, so elevating! Such a teacher! Thank you for teaching me, growing me, deepening me!!

It is better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all.
