Here we have a collection of cute love quotes and cute love words.



Love makes the wildest spirit tame, and the tamest spirit wild. ~ Alexis Delp
True love stories never have endings. ~ Unknown
Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own. ~ Robert Heinlein
Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. ~ H. L. Mencken
Nothing is more beautiful than the love that has weathered the storms of life. The love of the young for the young, that is the beginning of life. But the love of the old for the old, that is the beginning of things longer. ~ Jerome K. Jerome
I have said nothing because there is nothing I can say that would describe how I feel as perfectly as you deserve it ~ Kyle Schmidt
Love is not about what happens in life. Love is about what happens in your heart. ~ Gabor Timis

Good, honest critique can be difficult to find. Enter my husband. I'll be honest - he downright hurts my feelings from time to time. Sure, I bring it on myself to an extent - "Honey, will you please come tell me what you think of this picture? - And you can bet that he will. But thankfully, he is also the most supportive person in my life. And he's done so much to improve my technique by just offering kind, honest feedback and tons of support. Take the picture below as an example. I had been dying for an old barn sunset photo. I had been itching for an opportunity, and because he's an excellent listener, he knew this. On our way through Kentucky, the sky broke out into beautiful colors just as we passed this old barn. Without a word, he pulled the car off the highway and proceeded to help me jump over the barbwire fence, setup my tripod, and get into position before we lost the light. I... more »

Unplugging from the Stream

Thanks to +Mika Laine for this great image tonight :)

Four more days until the Knoxville HIRL ! If anyone in the area is interested and hasn't let me know yet, please do. I would like to let Barley's know how many to expect :)

To those folks who circled me today or circled me back, thank you, and I hope that I get to talk with you soon!

Take care of yourselves and each other fellow +plussers, and Ride the Stream while I dream :)

I'm looking for some similar images from G+ photographers or graphics to include in my Unplugging from the Stream posts every night (ok most nights :)), so if you have images that represent light streams, streams of consciousness, jet streams, just regular old streams ... please let me know (just + me in the post or album). I'd like to use G+ photographers... more »

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground

I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know, I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there

I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shinin' down

I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there 'til the end
Can you feel the love that we share?
Oh I'm already there

We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground

May the sun bring you new energies by day-May the moon softly restore you by night-May the rain wash away any worries you may have-May gentle breezes refresh your soul and all the days of your life-May you walk gently through the world and know its beauty..

Do not look back on happiness or dream of it in the future. You are only sure of today; do not let yourself be cheated out of it.

If ever two were one, then surely we.
If ever man were loved by wife, then thee;

If ever wife was happy in a man,
Compare with me, ye women, if you can.

I prize thy love more than whole mines of gold,
Or all the riches that the East doth hold.

Thy love is such I can in no way repay,
The heavens reward thee manifold, I pray.

Then while we live, in love let's so persevere,
That when we live no more, we may live ever.




***************



Not a hidden secret
of a fruitless past abandoned
and left behind like snake's skin
Not lost hopes, or shattered
dreams never came to be

Not lost time or efforts
of running for the win
It's the pain of an aching lover
Who suffers every hour
yet keeps it in

Listen to your inner voice.
Another common occurrence is ignoring that inner voice that suggests actionable steps to take towards your dreams. If you hear that inner intuition nudging you to do something that might not necessarily be within your comfort zone, go for it anyway. You never know if you will succeed at something unless you just take the plunge and try it anyway.

"As do you, always so kind"

Be confident and know that you CAN do it.
Often, confidence is what either prevents a person from following their heart or turning and walking away from their dreams. Don’t be the person that walks away and regrets it the rest of your life. Confidence in yourself will carry you to the ultimate peaks of success. Believe in yourself and know that you hold the power within yourself to accomplish whatever your heart desires.

Ode to A Beautiful Girl

Your magnificent eyes, dark emeralds aflame
Your silky bronzed hair, still perfect in rain
The way you walk, a light antelope in prance
So cheerful and happy, ever ready to dance
Your lithe Brazilian figure, I marvel through the days
How beautiful you do become, in the wondrous sunshine rays
On those rare moments, when your eyes meet mine
I feel a warm pleasure and a chill down my spine
When I hear your sweet laughter, a melodious tune
I feel alive, full of joy; I could fly to the moon
I sit idly nigh always wishing you'd see
Perhaps even come and sit down next to me
I watch how you smile, and send jolts through my heart
Your sensual features a fine work of art
Sometimes I watch the evening's amber sun
And I calm myself down, from thoughts weighing a tonne
The soothing orange... more »

Peace is Balance Stop moaning, complaining, or whining that life is ugly and bad. You’ll get more of that. And it isn’t ugly and bad. There is much of life that has to offer you. The question is…”Are you ready and willing to accept it now?” Change your attitude. You will find your peace.

Moving On

Alright, had a good trip to Orlando, but had to cut a few things short so it doesn't look like I'll be hitting Tampa this trip, so I'll have to make sure to catch it on the way back in the summer. I have to head to Savannah for the weekend to handle some personal business, so I'll be in the sweet southern city of Savannah until Sunday, when I head to Atlanta, followed by Birmingham, Biloxi, and then the Who Dat Nation in N'awlins for some beignets!!

I'll try to snap off some pics for you guys, and maybe even stop off and check out Hilton Head while I'm in Savannah. Any suggestions for the area??

As for tonight, I know you got your thursday shot earlier, but for now, I figured I would start friday off right.

Yours truly shooting with good friend Scott Miron ... and yeah, I was probably hungry. lol.

Love Ya!... more »
