It still is a long ways away from Valentine’s Day, but I thought that Ailsa’s Travel Theme this week speaks deeply about our need for belonging and the universal desire to love and be loved: Couples! Here are a few of my favorite couple shots during some of my travels.
Couple in Kuala Lumpur
“One’s not half of two; two are halves of one.”
― E.E. Cummings
Couple in Sydney, Australia
“Freedom is not the absence of commitments, but the ability to choose – and commit myself to – what is best for me.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Zahir
Girlfriends: Couple of Goof-offs and Women Warriors
“It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson, Emerson in His Journals
My Twin Soul
“Baby,” I’ll tell her “remember your mama is a worrier but your papa is a warrior and you are the girl with small hands and big eyes who never stops asking for more.”Remember that good things come in threes and so do bad things and always apologize when you’ve done something wrong but don’t you ever apologize for the way your eyes refuse to stop shining.Your voice is small but don’t ever stop singing and when they finally hand you heartbreak, slip hatred and war under your doorstep and hand you hand-outs on street corners of cynicism and defeat, you tell them that they really ought to meet your mother.– Point B by Sarah Kay
Oh I love Sarah Kay!
