Of course, Love disappears, when one tries to monitor the way of Its display.
But as to me, the main gratitude is to underline and enjoy Its coming.

Even if Love had got rules, We're not up to understand its “How”. And this is quite sad and vain, to try to control on that. As the time we're doing so, love has packed Its luggage to go.

With love.

I just met someone that was to good to be true once upon a time. He raised the bar so high NO one has ever measured up to him. I NEVER had to tell him what to do because he already knew. He wrote the book :)He was a true gentlemen.

Dearest Paulo and friend,

In the light of Valentines day i have a quote:

If you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:
To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.
To know the pain of too much tenderness.
To be wounded by your own understanding of love;
And to bleed willingly and joyfully.
To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;
To rest at the noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;
To return home at eventide with gratitude;
And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise upon your lips.
Kahlil Gibran
The Prophet, On Love

on this quote: love has no conditions. One does not love on the condition the person is perfect or even if the person loves them back. Love cares not of race, colour or age or anything else for that matter. I find that love true love is when you love, regardless. You just love. Although we can never pick a time for love to come- i find it always comes with perfect timing, even though we may not see it in the moment, it exists within us, and trust me, love knows when to come, for it is the one thing that has a timeless existance.

Thank you for being
Yajna

And he’s going to marry a girl that’s how old? Yes, that’s right. I rest my case.

Love comes running, no rules.
