If you love a flower, don’t pick it up.
Because if you pick it up it dies and it ceases to be what you love.

Love is not about possession.
Love is about appreciation.

Such a creature doesn’t exist.

2. You are irredeemably alone.

You will not be understood.

The moments of love were an illusion.
