He‘s not perfect. You aren‘t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn‘t going to quote poetry, he‘s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don‘t hurt him, don‘t change him, and don‘t expect for more than he can give. - Bob Marley

And crying is what makes the point even that much bolder wiser and stronger.

"Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all"

Just watched an episode of Reba and really liked this: "Immature love is wanting the other person to be happy only when they're with you. Mature love is wanting the other person to be happy, period."

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable -Bruce Lee

If your emotional abilities aren't in hand, if you don't have self-awareness, if you are not able to manage your distressing emotions, if you can't have empathy and have effective relationships, then no matter how smart you are, you are not going to get very far.
