You're lovable just because you're here

A relationship built on real love feels good. It isn’t selfish; it doesn’t cause you anxiety. When someone really loves you, he understands that you’re lovable just because you’re here. How he treats you underscores that understanding. Yes, a relationship requires work. But if it’s healthy, it should bring you joy – not just some of the time but most of the time. It should never require losing your voice, your self-respect, or your dignity. And whether you are 25 or 65, it should involve bringing all of who you are to the table - and walking away with even more.

– Oprah Winfrey

Time has been transformed

Time has been transformed, and we have changed; it has advanced and set us in motion; it has unveiled its face, inspiring us with bewilderment and exhilaration.

- Kahlil Gibran
