Quote - love

“A loving relationship
is one in which the loved one is free to be himself --
to laugh with me, but never at me;
to cry with me, but never because of me;
to love life, to love himself, to love being loved.
Such a relationship is based upon freedom
and can never grow in a jealous heart.” 

-Leo F. Buscaglia

peace of mind, contentment, grace,
the inner awareness of simple abundance -
it will surely come to us,
but only when we are ready to receive it
with an open and grateful heart."
