With true love, you can move mountains, make unusual sacrifices, live a life of deprivations and still be happy.

... People who are the spices of this world are the natural souls with instincts and impulses that have not been pruned by evolution and civilization.
Most of the truly kind people of this world show some measure of discomfort when offered kindness. Their gratitude stems not only from their understanding of the depth of the force of kindness, but also from their conviction that kindness should not be taken for granted.
So, you see; you have the soul of a missionary, the heart of a revolutionary and the mind of a reformer. But what are you to yourself and the family and friends who will always be there for you?

…the truest feeling of happiness is the security that comes with being loved.
A man can’t talk of true happiness if he has never known true love—the trusting, selfless and unconditional love that I took for granted.
The true leaders of our time, the legends of this world or the movers of the movers are the towering figures that are blessed with beautiful minds, receptive ears and directing voices. They are the ones we should emulate in life.
Singers, actors or artists who touch on sorrow are trying to give comfort to aggrieved souls by giving some meaning to their sorrows.
Man craves joy far more than anything else in life, but there is nothing as madly intoxicating as the feeling of joy that comes from the soul.
If there is no any patience, forbearance and forgiveness. Then there is no peace.
