Sharing with you things that are on my mind...Maybe yours too. Come back to Wrights Lane for a visit anytime! And, by all means, let's hear from you by leaving a comment at the end of any post. THE MOTIVATION: I firmly believe that if I have felt, experienced or questioned something in life, then surely others must have too. That's what this blog is all about -- hopefully relating in some meaningful way -- sharing, if you will, on subjects of an inspirational and human interest nature. Nostalgia will frequently find its way into some of the items...And lots of food for thought. A work in progress, to be sure.

WHAT IS TRUE LOVE?

The author of the following poem is unknown but I publish it here because it has special significance for me, and others in my life, at this time.

True love is a sacred flame
That burns eternally,
And none can dim its special glow
Or change its destiny.
.
True love speaks in tender tones
And hears with gentle ear,
True love gives with open heart
And true love conquers fear.
.
True love makes no harsh demands
It neither rules or binds,
And true love holds with gentle hands
The heart that it entwines.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To which I add:
Sometimes true love takes work
And is worth fighting for,
But once you have it
You could ask for nothing more.
.
Cherish it always!

Don't know how I missed this one! But so true, thanks for that. I guess it is through good and bad experiences that measure "True Love".

How true. When you find true love, hang on to it and never keep working on it.....it is too precious to lose...
