Love does not to be understood. It needs only to be shown.
Our soul is governed by four invisible forces: love, death, power and time.
I'm not worried about tomorrow, because God is there already, waiting for me.
Love lasts because it changes and not because it stays the same and never faces any challenges.
When we are walking our chosen path, we walk elegantly, emanating light.
Love accepts its companion unconditionally and allow each to grow in his or her own way.
You will be loved and respected only if you love and respect yourself.
Respect those who grew up and learned alongside you. Respect those who taught you.
With every farewell comes a hidden hope.
Love is an act of faith, not an exchange. Contradictions are what make love grow. Conflicts are what allow love to remain by our side.
Love transforms, Love heals. But sometimes it lays deadly traps and ends up destroying the person who decided to surrender himself completely.
True love, is the love that seduces and will never allow itself to be seduced.
Dreaming carries no risks. The dangerous thing is trying to transform your dreams into reality.
A life is never useless. Each soul that came down to Earth is here for a reason.
