“This was what love meant after all: sacrifice and selflessness.
It did not mean hearts and flowers and a happy ending,
but the knowledge that another's well-being is more important than one's own.”
― Melissa de la Cruz, Lost in Time

“Love" is a that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own...
Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition.
The immature mind often mistakes one for the other,
or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy”
― Robert A. Heinlein

The voice of the sea is seductive; never ceasing,whispering, clamoring,murmuring,inviting the soul to wander for a spell in abysses of solitude; to loose itself in mazes of inward contemplation.

The voice of the sea speaks to the soul. The touch of the sea is sensuous, enfolding the body in its soft, caressing embrace.
