I will always come home to you. I won't lie and tell you what I do isn't dangerous sometimes, but I'm always careful, and now, with you, I have a whole new reason to stay safe. - Nico

You must be almost a complete puzzle before you find your soulmate because that person is going to be the one piece missing that makes you whole.

A girl age 23, 10 years younger than me, came to me looking up at my spouse thinking love has all the answers and said, "If I could have half of what you have I would be good." Shocked because I said the same thing before, I replied, "You already do have it and more you just don't know it yet. It is about what is in store as you continue to build your life and your dreams."

Commitment is when the foundation of friendship solidifies the love you feel for that person.

Hope like that, as I thought before, doesn’t make you a weak person. It’s hopelessness that makes you weak. Hope makes you stronger, because it brings with it a sense of reason. Not a reason for how or why they were taken from you, but a reason for you to live. Because it’s a maybe. A ‘maybe someday things won’t always be this shit.’ And that ‘maybe’ immediately makes the shittiness better.

You can have whatever you so desire as long as you keep choosing it even if it doesn't choose you back, eventually something clicks.
