Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins, but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes."
~(The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB))
My eyes hurt and sting as I peel them open as the ray of sunburn my eyes and I move my legs around, hoping to kick against the tray I've eaten from last night... Yeah I'm that clumsy. But instead of hitting the tray, my legs enter into warm soft and comfortable sheets and my eyes open up in alarm, looking around the room that looks nothing like the closet I fell asleep in. I reach for my chest, making sure that m

"It takes courage to love, but pain through love is the purifying fire which those who love generously know. We all know people who are so much afraid of pain that they shut themselves up like clams in a shell and, giving out nothing, receive nothing and therefore shrink until life is a mere living death." ~Eleanor Roosevelt . The terror that takes over me is greater than any other I've felt in the past five to six years. I am afraid of my past. Yes, I do think of it, but never into details, I kept having nightmares about the night I was raped, I'd wake up panting, shivering, but more than anything wishing I could forget. The nightmares only stop four months ago, after I met Rory and even though I don't dream of it anymor

"The most wonderful of all things in life is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life." ~Sir Hugh Walpole . Taylor's POV "I loved him." I answer in my defence and I see him give me the most ridiculous look. "and I believed there was still a good part in him. That's what love does"

"Love means to commit oneself without guarantee, to give oneself completely in the hope that our love will produce love in the loved person. Love is an act of faith, and whoever is of little faith is also of little love."~Erich Fromm. Seven twenty-two p.m. "Going late to your first ever date is not the way to do things, Taylor," I tell myself as pack my hair in a loose ponytail style and apply nude lip gloss on my lips. I groan in frustration as I look around the bed for the paper Rory had written the direction earlier and I don't find it. This shouldn't be happening today, not today. I search around more carefully and going over to the make-up table and find

"Find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will lie under the stars and listen to your heartbeat, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep... wait for the boy who kisses your forehead, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who holds your hand in front of his friends, who thinks you're just as pretty without makeup on. One who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares and how lucky he is to have YOU... The one who turns to his friends and says, that's her..." ~Anonymous. .

The phone in my back pocket begins to ring and I pull it out to see a new number pops up. Who could it be? I think to myself. Seriously?

"When they asked me what I loved most about life, I smiled and said you." Tina~ . I enter my office and close the door.

Anonymous~ When Paris called me in the morning, waking up from my beauty sleep and said we were to meet up later in the day mumbling about the arrangements and our dresses for the engagement, I knew I was not among those she had given break yesterday.

He had concealed the place we were supposed to have our honeymoon from me and only revealed it on the plane to Scotland a week later.I was surprised, curious and excited about our trip like a little girl because I had only been able to travel to a few places I wanted to. Places like China, France, Nigeria, and Australia and all those trip were on official bases with Keenan. I had never been able to come to Scotland since. Those feelings however were nothing compared to the ones I developed when I saw our cottage on arrival at our destination.The old mansion was magnificent and I couldn't help feeling giddy as we got down from the car. It felt like a fairy tale came alive."Mrs Gate, we've reached our destination," Rory announces in a Scottish accent as if he were my guard and he gives me his hand.I decided to play along, "Oh, thank you," I blush and accept his hand and he t
