Love requires that we overcome the traditional and self-defeating fears that place distance between ourselves and others.

To that there is an answer.

In love, each man is his own personal challenge.

Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations. Don't over-analyze your relationships. Stop playing games. A growing relationship can only be nurtured by genuineness.

If I don't have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.

I was one of those fortunate individuals who grew up in a large, passionate, demonstrative Italian family where we were taught to love as naturally as we breathed and ate giant bowls of pasta!

The human need to play is a powerful one. When we ignore it, we feel there is something missing in our lives.
