Breaking free, or not, is usually determined by whether you want to get somewhere slowly or nowhere fast.

Sometimes it's the things that are all around us that are hardest to see, especially love.

We all have ideas about love and death. We keep a close eye out for them our entire lives, seeking one and avoiding the other, knowing all the while that both are mostly beyond our control. It is a both scary and exciting predicament. In the end, it all depends on how you look at it. One thing is for sure; it is never quite what you expect.

And though the symptons of lovesickness may be many, they all share a single cause and single cure: you.

The only reason to live is to love and the only reason to love is to live.

It's not the time we spend but how we spend the time that truly tells our story.

You can't have it both ways. Love is too powerful to hide for very long. Deny it and suffer the consequences. Acknowledge it and suffer the consequences. Revealing it can either be shameful or it can be liberating. It is for others to decide which it will be.
