Love

✺

Love like a star,
once small and far,
now huge, now near.

—Lee Robinson

~

Your love is better than ice cream,
better than anything else
that I've tried.

―Sarah McLachlan

~

You fit me better
than my favorite sweater.

—Lana Del Rey

~

And now I tell you openly
you have my heart,
so don't hurt me.
You're what I couldn't find.
A totally amazing mind,
so understanding and so kind.
You're everything to me.

―Cranberries

~

Our task is not to seek for love, merely to seek and find all the barriers within ourselves we have built against it.

—Rumi

~

Give yourself to love,
if love is what you're after.

―Kate Wolf

~

What is love anyway?

—Howard Jones

~

Love itself is the wonderful, beautiful sweetness that makes you happy.

—A.H. Almaas

~

Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone—we find it with another.

—Thomas Merton

~

The drama of love is all about this hunger for safe emotional connection, a survival imperative we experience from the cradle to the grave. Loving connection is the only safety nature ever offers us.

—Dr. Sue Johnson

~

Love is strange.

—Mickey & Sylvia

~

It's better than I ever even knew,
they say that the world
was built for two,
only worth living
if somebody is loving you,
and, baby, now you do.

—Lana Del Rey

~

Crazy little thing called love.

—Queen

And so you see
I have come to doubt
all that I once held as true.
I stand alone without beliefs.
The only truth I know is you.
