oh, you sweet thing

[Ludo Love]

when it comes to love, i don't know a goddamn thing.

my heart does what it pleases. it does not listen to me.

you shall take me strongly in your arms again

Yeasayer - I Remember
I remember making love on a Sunday
like throwing hearts in a fresh cut grass in May

[robert james @ the loft, audubon, nj]

"Existentially, the activity of pursuing rational goals is the activity of maintaining one's life; psychologically, its result, reward and concomitant is an emotional state of happiness.

It is by experiencing happiness that one lives one's life, in any hour, year or the whole of it. And when one experiences the kind of pure happiness that is an end in itself- the kind that makes one think: "This is worth living for" - what one is greeting and affirming in emotional terms is the metaphysical fact that life is an end in itself." - Ayn Rand
