All too often [people] believe it is a sign of commitment, an expression of love, to endure unkindness or cruelty, to forgive and forget. In actuality, when we love rightly we know that the healthy, loving response to cruelty and abuse is putting ourselves out of harm's way.

One of the most amazing things that can happen is finding someone who sees everything you are and won't let you be anything less. They see the potential of you. They see endless possibilities. And through their eyes, you start to see yourself the same way. As someone who matters. As someone who can make a difference in this world.

I want such a healthy relationship with my man that when I call he's answering, there's no such things as a second ring.

Light me up, light me up, light my body in wild amber and red. Then kiss my head鈥攎ake it gentle. Caress every inch of my being and wrap me inside your cosy cocoon, just until it's hot enough. Scorching. We like it that way. Show me, read me, ask me, love me. Hold my hand and carry me into cool waters. This is where my day ends, but you? Never. You're inside me, deep like the deepest ocean. And your eyes are carrying shining pebbles, heavy and overjoyed. Our eyes strip and search each other one more time. The world and stars haven't witnessed beauty and peace as such鈥攁nd we fall.
