"Happy New Year!"


"Fear Eats the Soul"

- Nora Roberts

"The Truth About Love..."

 
"Towards the outside, at any rate, the ego seems to maintain clear and sharp lines of demarcation. There is only one state — admittedly an unusual state, but not one that can be stigmatized as pathological — in which it does not do this. At the height of being in love the boundary between ego and object threatens to melt away. Against all the evidence of his senses, a man who is in love declares that "I" and "you" are one, and is prepared to behave as if it were a fact."

- Sigmund Freud



"Gay PDA Is Okay!"

"There Is No Greater Expression Of Love Than Marriage... Live Fearlessly"




"A Thought To Ponder..."


"Fear Eats the Soul"


"This Made Me Smile..."




"We Were Always There..."


"We weren't alone, they all knew and nobody cared, it was just love..."



"The Poet's Corner..."

 
Different Hearts
Anonymous

How to consider a house that’s not a home
How to consider a heart that stands alone
How to consider bee without its hives
This is me as you move on with your lives

I am the one that is covered in sin
Proud and reckless but ashamed within
Broken, alone, I hide from it all
Hoping to hurt less when I finish the fall

Will you doubt when I tell you my lie?
Will you come back when I tell you goodbye?
Can you recover when I blow you apart?
Together, forever into different hearts.

"The Poet's Corner..."

 
"Love and Light"
Henry Van Dyke

There are many kinds of love, as many kinds of light,
And every kind of love makes a glory in the night.
There is love that stirs the heart, and love that gives it rest,
But the love that leads life upward is the noblest and the best.



"Gay PDA Is Okay!"








This is from a sketch on Jon Stewart's The Daily Show, where he sent these two actors to communities in the South to highlight anti-gay hatred at the sight of Gay PDA... Much to everyone's surprise, most Southerners reacted to Gay PDA with little or no negativity.  And in Alabama, this heart warming reaction from a guy on the street who clearly believes in love and equality.
