-William Wordsworth

[text ID: I thought I would never say the words that now come naturally to me when I see you – I adore you. I adore you with all my body and soul ... You are my destiny, my eternity, my life.]

Some people leave your life. Only to remain in your duas.

[text ID: Don’t let us forget that the causes of human actions are usually immeasurably more complex and varied than our subsequent explanations of them.]

[text ID: There are two ways to reach me: by way of kisses or by way of the imagination. But there is a hierarchy: the kisses alone don't work.]
