Well, it’s actually a quiet day at Diamond today (for once) so my thoughts this afternoon are drifting to the upcoming weekend.  It’s going to be a busy one, but also should be a lot of fun.  Shannon and I are continuing our “date night” tradition, and are going to a party with some good friends on Saturday night.  After a long, tiring week it’s just what the Doctor ordered!

Anyways, here are the remainder of the quotes to date.  Yes, don’t be shocked but I’m actually caught up for once!

05/11 – “When we love anyone with our whole hearts, life begins when we are with that person; it is only in their company that we are really and truly alive.”  – William Barclay

05/12 – “To be in love
Is to touch things with a lighter hand.
In yourself you stretch, you are well.”  – From “To Be In Love” by Gwendolyn Brooks

05/13 – “As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.”  – Helen Keller

05/14 – “All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon the sand.”  – Ella Wheeler Wilcox

05/15 – “It is a lovely thing to have a husband and wife developing together and having the feeling of falling in love again. That is what marriage really means: helping one another to reach the full status of being persons, responsible and autonomous beings who do not run away from life.”  – Paul Tournier

I still find it amazing how much she fills my thoughts…
