Loving What Is
This is My Commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. Greater love has no more than this, that one lay down his life for his friends. No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I have made known to you." ~ Bible (John 15:12-15) Love for the joy of loving, and not for the offerings of someone else's heart. ~ Marlene Dietrich Distance is ignored by love. (A`ohe loa`a i ka hana a ke aloha.) ~ Hawaiian Proverb Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart, and the senses. ~ Voltaire One is very crazy when in love. ~ Sigmund Freud Love many things for therein lies the true strength, whosoever loves much performs much and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well. ~ Vincent Van Gogh Don’t you think I was made for you? I feel like you had me ordered -- and I was delivered to you -- to be worn -- I want you to wear me, like a watch-charm or a button hole bouquet -- to the world. ~ Zelda Fitzgerald Where there is no love, put love and you will find love. ~ St. John of the Cross
"If I love in thee, beloved, only what thou lovest most, do not be angry; for so one spirit is enamoured of another." ~ Michelangelo
