Anyone who really loves you wants you to be authentic. And anyone who doesn't want you to be authentic doesn't really love you.
Pity is easy, but it is difficult to care.
True love is not so much a matter of romance as it is a matter of anxious concern for the well-being of one's companion.
In my experience, people who are truly compassionate rarely use the word "compassion." Those who do talk compassion generally intend to be compassionate with your money, not their own. It's wrong for someone to confiscate your money, give it to someone else, and call that 'compassion'.
The love of Christ comes from simple people who love simple people. Never be fooled by the spiritual leader who knows a lot but doesn't love a lot.
I am your moon and your moonlight too I am your flower garden and your water too I have come all this way, eager for you Without shoes or shawl I want you to laugh To kill all your worries To love you To nourish you.
My heart goes out to you, and I long to see you all coming constantly to God for a fresh supply of love.
Could it be that to truly love a thing is not to desire it, but to desire happiness for it?
No love is conditional. If love is conditional, it’s just some sort of manipulation masquerading as love.
Care like hell! Sit around the bars and drink, and pose, and pretend, all you want to, but in reality, deep down underneath, care like hell.
