There is always something of the child in us that wants a strong hand to hold through the hungry season of growing up. :)

"Once a young woman said to me, "Hafiz, what is the sign of someone who knows the God?" I became very quiet, and looked deep into her eyes, then replied, "My dear, they have dropped the knife. Someone who knows the God has dropped the cruel knife that most so often use upon their tender self and others." :)

There is a hunger often associated with pain that you feel when you look at someone, you used to love and enjoyed loving and want to love again, though you know you can't. :)

Often our obsession comes from uncertainty during earlier years of life. Such uncertainties lead us to create either anxious attachment or avoidant attachment with others. Our obsession is not with certain someone or something but it's a constant fear of losing. Now if we talk about ruin, we are already ruined (and it's okay, we all are), now it's time to make amends. :)

Lies are told about the most significant aspects of daily life. When many of us are asked basic questions, like How are you today? A lie is substituted for the truth. :)

If I ever have children, I want to be the house that my children's friends want to come to, because despite whatever they are facing at home, they'll know they'll find a second family with me and mine. :)

For every person who thinks you're "too quiet" there's one who thinks you're an amazing listener.
For every person who thinks you're "too clingy" there's one who loves how much and how openly you care about others. For every person who thinks you're "too weird" there's one who admires how you dare to stand out from the crowd. For every person who thinks you are "too sensitive" there's one who respects you for being so in touch with your feelings. For every person who thinks you're "too confident" there's one who thinks your self-respect is an inspiration. What's a negative trait in one person's eyes might be exactly what someone else is looking for. It's not black or white. :)

What I witnessed is that in a relationship, there's definitely not only two people because each one of the people is bringing with them their parents or the people that have influenced them in terms of couples and family relations, and when they're talking to each other, they are not necessarily talking to their partner. They could be talking to their mother, talking to their father, repeating a certain dance. These conversations are never over and you're always having them with your partner and then with your kids, like you're talking to your partner and you're actually continuing the conversation you had with your mother or father like some 20 years ago. :)

And everything depends upon how near you sleep to me.... :)
