Love

 

 Valentine's Day!! 

 

Let's pay homage to some of the greatest love stories of all time:

 

* Heathcliffe and Cathy in Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights.

 

* William Shakespeare's  Romeo and Juliet.

 

* Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.

 

* Tristan and Isolde of King Arthur lore.

 

* Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre and Rochester.

 

* Meggie Cleary and Father Ralph de Bricassart in The Thorn Birds by Collen McCullough.

 

* Linda and  Thomas in Anita Shreve's The Last Time They Met.

 

*James and Shelli in A Turkey Creek Love Story.

(I hit the love story jackpot

 when I married James;

 he's great and I'm lucky!)

 

                                                                                               Happy Valentine's Day,

                                                                                                                             Shelli

 

For you see, each day I love you more
Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow.
~Rosemonde Gerard
 

My heart to you is given:
Oh, do give yours to me;
We'll lock them up together,
And throw away the key.
~Frederick Saunders

 

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach.

 ~Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Grow old with me! The best is yet to be.

~Robert Browning

 

We're all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness — and call it love — true love.

 ~Robert Fulghum, True Love
