Finding Love Quotes

“Sometimes your inability to let go has nothing to do with real love and everything to do with what that person represents in your life. Why do you give them so much importance? Why do you believe that God doesn't love you enough that he would not bring someone else into your life? Why do you put up with less than you deserve?”

“A strong, square jaw gave him a rather formidable appearance, but he had surprisingly full, soft-looking lips that went a long way to soften his face when he smiled. Intelligent eyes the colour of polished amber looked out from under straight eyebrows. And those eyes were focused squarely on her. Despite the dire circumstances, she couldn’t help but feel a flutter of awareness in her stomach.”

“You’re thinking, maybe it would be easier to let it slip let it go say ”I give up” one last time and give him a sad smile. You’re thinking it shouldn’t be this hard, shouldn’t be this dark, thinking love could flow easily with no holding back and you’ve seen others find their match and build something great together, of each other, like two halves fitting perfectly and now they achieve great things one by one, always together, and it seems grand. But you love him. Love him like a black stone in your chest you couldn’t live without because it fits in there. Makes you who you are and the thought of him gone—no more—makes your chest tighten up and maybe this is your fairytale. Maybe this is your castle. You could get it all on a shiny piece of glass with wooden stools and a neverending blooming garden but that’s not yours. This is yours. The cracks and the faults, the ugly words in the winter walking home alone and angry but falling asleep thinking you love him. This is your fairy tale. The quiet in the hallway, wishing for him to turn around, tell you to stay, tell you to please don’t go I need you like you need me and maybe it’s not a Jane Austen novel but this is your novel and your castle and you can run from it your whole life but this is here in front of you. Maybe nurture it? Sweet girl, maybe close the world off and look at him for an hour or two. This is your fairy. It ain’t perfect and it ain’t honey sweet with roses on the bed. It’s real and raw and ugly at times. But this is your love. Don’t throw it away searching for someone else’s love. Don’t be greedy. Instead, shelter it. Protect it. Capture every second of easy, pull through every storm of hardship. And when you can, look at him, lying next to you, trusting you not to harm him. Trusting you not to go. Be someone’s someone for someone. Be that someone for him. That’s your fairy tale. This is your castle. Now move in. Build a home. Build a house. Build a safety around things you love. It’s yours if you make it so. Welcome home, sweet girl, it will be all be fine.”

“Hope for love, pray for love, wish for love, dream for love…but don’t put your life on hold waiting for love.”

“İlişkilerde kalıcı mutluluğun sırrı, yalnızca uyumlu kişiliklere sahip olmakta değil, birbirini anlamaya ve geliştirmeye istekli olmakta saklıdır. Bu mutluluk, âşık olmakla sınırlı kalmayıp ilişkilerini emekle, gönüllülükle ve “biz” hayaliyle inşa edenlere mahsustur.”

“Benim travmalarım var ama ruh eşim gelip beni iyileştirecek” düşüncesi, ne yazık ki gerçekçi bir çözüm sunmaz. Çünkü hayatımıza giren insanlar, çoğu zaman yalnızca kendi içsel durumumuzun bir yansımasıdır.”

“Sonra o an gelir: ilk göz göze geliş… Bir süreliğine dünya durur ya hani, bilirsiniz o sessizlik anını. İşte o an, unutulmuş bir hayalin hatırlandığı ve umutların yeniden yeşerdiği andır. Rüzgâr bir ritim tutturur, yapraklar dans eder, yıldızlar bir ışık şöleni başlatır.”

“Aşk, doğru insanla bir armağandır; kalbi saran, ruhu besleyen. Yanlış insanla bir sınavdır; öğüten, büyüten, yeniden inşa eden. Biri huzur, diğeri yangındır; ama hangisi daha kıymetli dersen, Genelde acı ve kederdir; sana gerçek potansiyelini gösteren.”

“İnsan çoğu zaman “eksikliğini hissettiği ama arzulamaktan vazgeçemediği” şeylerin peşindedir. Ancak bazen de “elde ettiği ama sahip olmaya katlanamadığı” şeylerle yüzleşir. Nadiren her ikisinin de geçerli olduğu bir şeyle karşılaşırız. Ve işte aşk, tam da böyle bir şeydir.”

“Aşkı kıymetli ve yaşanmaya değer kılan, o tarifsiz heyecanı veren öngörülemezliği, bilinmezliği ve belirsizliğidir. Ne zaman, nerede, kime yöneleceğinin ve ne hissettireceğinin kestirilememesidir. Bu belirsizlik, onun ruhumuza kattığı derin anlamın kaynağıdır.”

“Bazen unutamadığımız şey, âşık olduğumuz kişiler değil, onlara duyduğumuz aşkın özlemidir: Bir zamanlar gözünü bile kırpmadan seven, şimdi ise derinlere gömdüğümüz, içimizdeki o fedakâr âşığın hasreti…”
