Thankful Thursdays

A word about Love: We don’t know our own strength until we have seen how strong love makes us.

Ray, Lauren, and Danny, I love you. For how strong you make me, this Valentine’s Day and always, I am thankful.

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)
                                       i fear
no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
~e. e. cummings

Happy Valentine’s Day, friends and family! ♥

What are you thankful for today?

Until next Thursday’s post…si Dios quiere.

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”
-Lao Tzu

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
-1 Corinthians 13:4-7
