All you need is Love, and Love is all you need.
A Love So Deep
I want a love so deep that the earth feels compelled to let it lay its roots on her bosom so that she may water it with the essence of a woman. That its growth may multiply from within her and rise from the ground to catch its breath and take in the warmth of the sunlight above her.

Hot Tea
To my husband: The hot tea is sitting on my nightstand. It always tastes better when you make it. You know just how I like it: Yorkshire tea, milk, and two Splendas. There is something very comforting in that fact. That you always know what I need before I need it. How you can see the signs and you do everything in your power to help.

How Far Can Love Travel?
Long distance relationship, or LDR, is a bitch. But, she's a bitch that you would want to be friends with. I've been in an 8-year relationship that ended because of long distance, or so I thought. It's not something I regret though, because LDR taught me a lot of things. Some of it I probably already knew, but had to re-learn in a harder way. Here's some of it:

The Forbidden Attraction
I'm writing this because I think I’ve finally cracked. Don’t get me wrong; this doesn’t go to serve the purpose of seeing the pity written all over your face as I walk past you daily knowing that my less-than-whole soul has been returned to my cold hands with nothing but a promise of friendship and a reminder that we can never be. No.

The Energy Of Human Emotion
"May the force be with you." Science fiction? Maybe not! It is proven that every living thing emits energy. Our ability to harness and constructively use it is just beginning to be developed. An emotional response for survival is probably the closest in explaining this phenomenon of energy that is in every living organism.

On Love and Tacos
When I began eating a vegetarian diet in 2001, my live-in boyfriend at the time did not. We had both come upon information about how much healthier it was to substitute vegetable proteins for meat, the cruelty involved in raising and butchering animals for food, and the environmental impact of our taste for animal flesh. But while I was moved to act, he was content to not change, saying “I just like to eat meat too much to stop”. I found it a huge turn-off, and this was one of a few reasons why he became an ex-boyfriend. To me, it was another example of how rigid he was, his inability to personally evolve.

Simple Love
So, regardless of the title we all know that love is far from simple. I'm 20 now and in my first real relationship and I've been with him for over a year and a half so it's still basically new. Our relationship hasn't been easy, there's been arguments, fights, lots of tears but we've had great times as well but doesn't every couple.

The 'Living Together at Separate Addresses, Sharing the Toothbrush' Shuffle
Love has turned me into a “shopping-bag." But I'm not the only one. I've learned that many of the innocent-looking tote bags I see sprouting squash racquets and office files are likely to contain a toothbrush and change of clothes as well. I'm not talking about the post-adolescent version of a "slumber party" in which single people routinely prepare for a date or a night on the town by carrying camouflaged shaving kits or contraceptive gadgetry–"just in case." I'm talking about a pattern of living in which love and "liberation" conspire to make extracurricular commuting a daily routine.

That Old Familiar Rain
In the wee hours of twilight the rhythm of the falling rain moves with a tempo whose melody is unmistakably somber in tone. The pitter patter beats a painful reminder of those yesteryears where bittersweet moments still linger in conscious thought. The gaiety of life was often subdued by tears of sorrow and woe. As I recall it was the tumultuous relationship with my parents that set me adrift in the sea of missed opportunity. Those were the days of struggle amidst hope. The decisions I made though affected more than just me. And, yet I keep paying a price for every day I threw away.
