"For every evil under the sun, There is a remedy, or there is none. If there be one, seek till you find it, if there be none, never mind it."
~ Mother Goose
"Sometimes I feel there's a hole inside of me.
An emptiness that at times.. seems to burn.
I think if you lifted my heart to your ear,
you could probably hear the ocean.
And the moon tonight, there's a circle around it.
A sign of trouble not far behind.
I have this dream of being whole;
of not going to sleep each night, wanting.
But still, sometimes when the wind is warm or the crickets sing..
I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for.
I just want someone to love me.
I want to be seen..
I don't know.
Maybe I've had my happiness.
I don't want to believe it..
But there is no man..
Only that moon."
~ quoted from Practical Magic movie.
"Love is always kind and patient. It is not selfish and resentful. It is never jealous."
If love is never jealous and not selfish, then I won't be anymore..
Why?..
Because I love you..
"If you love me as I love you,
Nothing but death can part us two."
~ excerpt from Anne of Green Gables book
