Quotes for the day

"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossom had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two." -St. Augustine

“I can give you a definite perhaps”

“Excellence is not a singular act, but a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.”

“I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, And that enables you to laugh at life's realities.”  -Dr. Seuss

"I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind."-Albert Einstein

Something to chew on.

As I was driving home tonight thinking about life, several thoughts occurred to me, I decided I wanted to remember some of these. This line of thinking was geared more for my love life.  Few ideas on the one in a million person out there who will get me, and be the person to just blow my mind. These are the deal breakers.

Serious love of music. Whether it's playing it or just a serious music appreciation. Diversity is key, loving different types, and having love for the beauty in it.

Very like minded, similar ways of thinking, ideas, and understanding. Ahhh... but the catch, but different enough in the way that keeps my attention. I don't want or need someone just like me. Just someone who gets it.

Excellent sense of silly, insane, goofy humor. I like the odd ball things, and laugh at things only a few would get and laugh at. I like to laugh, but I love to laugh with someone else who is laughing for the same reason.


They must read, and enjoy doing so. It's one of my favorite things ever, a love to share with someone else. Being introduced to new material, or have someone open to new material. Excellent. 


Surprise me,very few people ever do.. It really isn't hard. Remembering those little things about me, details. The kind that catches me off guard...that someone was paying attention when I wasn't.
 
Someone who works for what they have. Nope, don't need my drive or ambition, but they need to want some more for themselves and not take it at others expenses.

Don't expect me to want anything from them. I can take care of myself just fine. But to want to give me something. That's different. Not petty or even material things, I don't need someone to buy me anything. Again covered. Sweet, thoughtful, not closed off to me, it's amazing how big a difference that makes.

Intelligence. Communication. Common sense. Kindness. Manners, Straight forwardness, honesty, and some serious integrity.

More gibberish to wash out of my head, move on to something else. Just a few note worthy thoughts to myself. To love the chase, the romance, and happy fairytale ending, it's a fun idea. I have that desire to want more with someone, for the long-term. I am not so much on thinking I need to find it. Things have seemed to find me all on it's own quite well.  One in a million sounds about right.
