Some days it is enough to just be. Be alive, be in the moment, be your best self, and if you are lucky, be with the one you love more than life itself.

 

 "And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make."

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

 

 

The Third Body

Robert Bly

A man and a woman sit near each other, and they do not long
at this moment to be older, or younger, nor born
in any other nation, or time, or place.
They are content to be where they are, talking or not talking.
Their breaths together feed someone whom we do not know.
The man sees the way his fingers move;
he sees her hands close around a book she hands to him.
They obey a third body that they share in common.
They have made a promise to love that body.
Age may come, parting may come, death will come.
A man and a woman sit near each other;
as they breathe they feed someone we do not know,
someone we know of, whom we have never seen.
