Love can mean different things to different
people. To me it is the feeling of
knowing someone is there for you. having
someone to lean on. and of course
"The feeling" you know when you can't stop
thinking of the person, or writing
notes to them. Wanting to be with them every
second of the day or wanting to hug
them and kiss them all the time.
.....................................................................
Love bears all things,
believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things.
...Love never ends.

~Something about us seems so natural and complete,
like we were always meant to be together
and nothing could ever change the way we feel.
Maybe it's the way we know what the other person
is thinking.
Maybe it's how our moods and emotions compliment
each other so well.
Or maybe it's that we dream the same dream
and share the same values...
Whatever it is,it grows stronger
and deeper every day.
Whatever it is,it means that I Love You~

When your life is filled with the desire to see the
holiness in everyday life, something magical happens:
ordinary life becomes extraordinary, and the very process
of life begins to nourish the soul~
.......................................................................
How It Must Be
I think of you and how it must be
To see you in the mist of early morning light
To watch you breath and lightly touch your lips
To see you slowly open your eyes
To gaze into your soul as you awaken to the light
To touch your face with my fingers and lips
To kiss your neck and feel you deeply inhale
To place my gaze upon your face
To fall with you as if into space
I think of you and how it must be.
