Do real life people actually fall in love
with the idea of being in love?
Unfortunately, it is actually quite common.
Someone wants desperately to have
the husband or wife of their dreams.

with the white picket fence.
They choose the colors for the nursery.
They design all the aspects of their married life.
A real person stands no chance of measuring up to those fantasies.

rather than seeking to better understand the mind of God.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Nobody needs your help.
I know, I know, this is a difficult one. But it is true.

Aspect of Divinity is powerless without you is inaccurate.
- Neale Donald Walsch
If the mind wants to comprehend reality,

of feeling safe with a person;
having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words,

keep what is worth keeping, and then,
with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.
- George Eliot

If you truly have no anger, you are blessed and joyful.

pound pillows, scream, curse.
Then take a deep breath, and get over it.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Your relationship will become stronger and happier if you do.

This life is what you make it.
Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes,
it's a universal truth.

Don't let go of them.
Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world.
