“When you finally close the book, the characters have told their story and you start up again with another book, complete with new characters and adventures. Then you find yourself focusing on the new ones, not the ones from the past.”

Without you in my arms, I feel an emptiness in my soul. I find myself searching the crowds for your face – I know it’s an impossibility, but I cannot help myself.

My dogs are there to teach me to take a break. They’re there to remind me that there’s more to life than work.

When you cry I cry and when you hurt I hurt. And together we will try to hold back the floods to tears and despair and make it through the potholed street of life.

No matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours.

I finally understood what true love meant. Love meant that you care for another person’s happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be.

It has to get ugly before it gets pretty!

If conversation was the lyrics, laughter was the music, making time spent together a melody that could be replayed over and over without getting stale.

I’d learned that some things are best kept secret.

You are my best friend as well as my lover, and I do not know which side of you I enjoy the most. I treasure each side, just as I have treasured our life together.

We’re not the same people we were then. We’ve changed, we’ve grown.

People come, people go – they’ll drift in and out of your life, almost like characters in a favorite book.

Every great love starts with a great story.

So it’s not gonna be easy. It’s going to be really hard; we’re gonna have to work at this everyday, but I want to do that because I want you. I want all of you, forever, everyday. You and me – everyday.

You are the answer to every prayer I’ve offered. You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don’t know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have.

The scariest thing about distance is that you don’t know whether they’ll miss you or forget you.

I mean, if the relationship can’t survive the long term, why on earth would it be worth my time and energy for the short term?
