Love

Bob Marley once wrote, "Only once in your life,truly believe, you find someone who can completely turn your world around. You tell them thongs that you've never shared with another soul and they absorb everything you say and actually want to hear more. You share hopes for the future, dreams that will never come true, goals that were never achieved and the many disappointments life has thrown at you. When something wonderful happens, you cant wait to tell them about it, knowing they will share your excitement. They are not embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurting or laugh when you make a fool  of yourself. Never do they hurt your feelings or make you feel like you are not good enough, but rather they build you up and show you the things about yourself that make you special and even beautiful. There is never any pressure, jealousy or competition but only a quiet calmness when they are around. You can be yourself and not worry about what they will think of you because they love you for who you are. The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever. Memories of your childhood come back and are so clear and vivid, its like being young again. Colors seem brighter and more brilliant. Laughter's seem part of daily life where before it was infrequent or didn't exist at all. A phone call or two during the day helps you get through a long days work and always brings a smile to your face. In their presence, theres no need for continuous conversation, but you find your quite content in just having them nearby. Things that never interested you before became fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do. Simple things bring them to mind like a pale blue sky, gentle wind or even a storm cloud on the horizon. You open your heart knowing that there's a chance it may be broken one day and in opening your heart, you experience a love and joy that you never dreamed possible. You find that being vulnerable is the only way to allow your heart to feel true pleasure that so real it scares you. You find strength in knowing you have a true friend and possibly  a soul mate who will remain loyal to the end. Life seems completely different, exciting and worthwhile. Your only hope and security is in knowing that they are a part of your life." I know this quote is super long but it is the best quote i have ever read about love. it makes me think of all the things you can get out of love. I know its an amazing feeling because this is exactly how i feel about that one special person in my life. I feel like i can say or do anything around him because i know he wont judge me. Whenever a person is with that special someone you feel like nothing can hurt you or get in the way of your special bond. Your bond is so strong that nothing else in the world compares to it. It never fails that whenever your without them you cant help but think of them and hope the next time your together is soon. Most people might think that your relationship is odd but they don't understand what your relationship truly shares. I say if your happy with that special person then it should not matter what anyone else thinks or says.

  1. wow way to stick a huge long quote in and then describe just a little. but i love this quote, too. there's really no need for explanation because it says it all. you're right about what you said at the end. how nothing else should matter... but always within reason (:

  2. Marlene, although that quote was very long, I find it to be one of the most honest quotes out there. It is so beautiful and real that reading it automatically makes me think of that one person in my life. I agree with what you said about how we shouldnt care about what people think or say because overall as long as were happy it shouldnt matter. Your quote, along with your writing is beautiful.

  3. This quote was beautiful. It described every aspect of what love should be. Yes it was long but how can someone shorten such a great saying. I can not personally relate to this though because I have never been in love. But I have heard great love stories and I have never heard one like this. I hope when I do find that special someone that it’s like this everyday of our lives. I really liked how you related to this quote too.
