And he said, she said...
"Without you my day is blue,
and still I must smile..."
----------------------------------------
No faces around me,
Emersed in your eyes.
I hear nothing,
Only your voice,
As people pass by.

" There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not. "
~ Duc de la Rochefoucauld

Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.
Carl Gustav Jung
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Love is like a friendship caught on fire.
In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering.
As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and
unquenchable. -- Bruce Lee ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We know we have passed from death into life, because we love... 1 John 3:14 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Audere est Facere - To dare, is to do
~~~~~~~~~~ Martial Arts -
Not for fighting, but to find your own inner peace.

Dear to us are those who love us... but dearer are those who reject us as unworthy, for they add another life; they build a heaven before us whereof we had not dreamed, and thereby supply to us new powers out of the recesses of the spirit, and urge us to new and unattempted performances.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

If you press me to say why I loved him, I can say no more than because he was he, and I was I. - Michel de Montaigne

An excerpt from a wonderful book, Atlas Shrugged written by Ayn Rand. It has to do with giving away the best parts of yourself because of the negative influence of circumstances and/or people in your closest circle. In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice your world to those who are at its' worst. In the name of the values that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless in those who have not yet achieved... Do not lose your knowledge that man is at his best with uncompromising values, and a step that travels unlimited roads. Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite,the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won. It exists.... It is real.... It's yours. Dakota 2000 ©
