“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”
~~Robert A. Heinlein, Stranger in a Strange Land~~
“I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I’ve led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I’ve loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough..”
~~Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook~~
“Love is like the wind, you can’t see it but you can feel it.”
~~Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember~~
“You don’t love someone because they’re perfect, you love them in spite of the fact that they’re not.”
~~Jodi Picoult, My Sister’s Keeper~~
“When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth.”
~~Jess C. Scott, The Intern~~
“Love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone’s bad qualities because they somehow complete you.”
~~Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby~~
“I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.”
~~Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets~~
“You are my best friend as well as my lover, and I do not know which side of you I enjoy the most. I treasure each side, just as I have treasured our life together.”
~~Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook~~
“Where there is love there is life.”
~~Mahatma Gandhi~~
“Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold.”
~~Zelda Fitzgerald~~
“One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.”
~~Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist~~
“So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you.”
~~Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist~~
“Two people in love, alone, isolated from the world, that’s beautiful.”
~~Milan Kundera~~
“Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.”
~~Plato~~
“Love is a fire. But whether it is going to warm your hearth or burn down your house, you can never tell.”
~~Joan Crawford~~

Oh, I so love that wondrous butterfly picture with the added rainbow colors. That particular butterfly was one of my favorites in California. (I was born and grew up there before moving here at the age of 30. Taught fifth and sixth grade for 6 years. My mom had been an elementary substitute teacher and my dad a high school principal.)
ps–I know how your 52 degrees the other day in Florida would have felt….California and Florida do not have airtight window frames that keep drafts out. In snow states most houses are built better to keep the cold out. Also, in California my blood was thinner…now it has adjusted for the cold here.)
