but I was looking for something more. Something real.
“Men are like Assam tea. It takes a moment for the message to sink in.”
the steps came easily. Like my muscles had remembered them even when my mind begged to forget.
The perfect team. You reached for the stars, and she kept your feet on the ground. You showed her how precious she was, and she adored you. When you weren’t around, I’d watch her iron your clothes, even though we could have hired it out a million times over. She’d say, ‘Why would I let someone else do it when my husband can wear my love every day?’”
I deserve the chance to have that kind of love. I deserve to have someone who loves me like the moon loves the stars, always shining for each other.”
“Marriage isn’t about choosing someone. It’s about choosing love.”
I hadn’t even realized how much hope I had been holding on to until it was snatched away.

“When I saw you the first time, I knew I had to know you.”

Amore et melle et felle es fecundissimus.”
“Love is rich with honey and venom,”
“I would get stung a million times before I would ever give up something so sweet.”
“If I’ve learned anything, it’s that there are some things worth getting burned for.”
“To enjoy the fall, you have to jump.”
“Love will always lead me in the right direction. You are my true north.”
