Hug Your Loved Ones Today

Caresses, expressions of one sort or another, are necessary to the life of the affections as leaves are to the life of a tree. If they are wholly restrained, love will die at the roots.
**Nathaniel Hawthorne

Let It Go

“If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it was, and always will be yours. If it never returns, it was never yours to begin with.” 

**Sherrilyn Kenyon

Happy Valentine’s!

“Love doesn’t have to be on Valentine’s Day. It doesn’t have to be by the time you turn eighteen or thirty-three or fifty-nine. It doesn’t have to conform to whatever is usual. It doesn’t have to be kismet at once, or rhapsody by the third day. It just has to be. In time. In place. In spirt.
It just has to be.” 

**David Levithan

The Deepest Romance

“Perhaps, after all, romance did not come into one’s life with pomp and blare, like a gay knight riding down; perhaps it crept to one’s side like an old friend through quiet ways; perhaps it revealed itself in seeming prose, until some sudden shaft of illumination flung athwart its pages betrayed the rhythm and the music, perhaps . . . perhaps . . . love unfolded naturally out of a beautiful friendship, as a golden-hearted rose slipping from its green sheath.” 

**L.M. Montgomery

Reasons to Love

“An average of seventy-four species become extinct every day, which was one good reason but not the only one to hold someone’s hand. . .” 

**Nicole Krauss

Best Description of Evolving Love

“I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.” 

**Jane Austen
