“When you fall in love, it is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake, and then it subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots are to become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the desire to mate every second of the day. It is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every part of your body. No … don’t blush. I am telling you some truths. For that is just being in love; which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over, when being in love has burned away. Doesn’t sound very exciting, does it? But it is!”
i want a simple life in a little home with lots of natural light and house plants, cats lazing about, a big fluffy bed, a nice porch to sit on when it rains and a kitchen to make meals with my love. i want a garden for her and i in the back and a chicken coop for fresh eggs. i want fresh air and gossamer curtains blowing gently in the breeze. i want a good oven to bake pastries in, and a big table to share meals with friends and family. i want a green sectional couch i can snuggle her on and watch silly shows and fall asleep until we groggily make our way back into the bed, gently covering each other in kisses and caresses. i want to be comfortable enough to travel the world and see every beautiful thing with her, i want to celebrate holidays and birthdays and good days and even bad ones. i want a slow life, one filled with good cups of coffee, lots of hugs, fresh fruits and veggies, hiking and kayaking, knitting and painting, and her.
