Quote of the day:We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken.-Fydor DostoevskyYou cannot say to a stranger-
Love me.
Or to a friend-
Hate me.
You cannot say to the ticking clock- Less speed.
Or to the winds-
More force.
You cannot say to the sun-
More warmth. Or to the rain-
Less storm. You cannot say to the stars-
More twinkle.
Or to the moon-
Less glow....But sometimes we fall in love with
strangers.
And fall out of love with
friends...
But love should never be forced...ever.
And time waits for no one...none.twitter.com/iamblogorattiCurrent Listen:-

ReplyDeleteI like the fact that the quote says interest us at first sight because I don't believe there is such a thing as love at first sight.
(Stating the obvious, I know)
