Love Lost...Love Gained...

I am nothing special; just a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten. But in one respect I have succeeded as gloriously as anyone who's ever lived: I've loved another with all my heart and soul; and to me, this has always been enough. --Noah (The Notebook)

Life is a passion..........

"Love is passion, obsession, someone you can’t live without. If you don’t start with that, what are you going to end up with? Fall head over heels. I say find someone you can love like crazy and who’ll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I’m not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you’ll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love - well, you haven’t lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven’t tried, you haven’t lived."-William Parrish

يا خادم الجسم كم تشقى بخدمتهاتطلب الربح مما فيه خسرانانهض الى الروح واستكمل فضائلهافانك بالروح لا بالجسم انسانوامدد يديك بحبل الله معتصمافانه الركن ان خانتك اركان

"Oh servant of your body,
how tired, you are, at serving it.
Do you ask to win from what holds in it a loss?
Rise to your soul, and complete its manners,
For you are, by the soul not the body, a human.
And reach to God's rope, hold it tightly,
For He is The corner, when other corners deceive you."

I too dream........

All men dream: but not equally.Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was a vanity: But the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, For they may act their dreams out with open eyes, to make it possible....This I did." T.E. Lawrence

About Me

My photo
Marianna
I chose the online name Marianna in 1994 when I "discovered" the Internet because I loved how it flowed....I consider myself a moderate in politics and life because not everything is simply black or white. (There's always a touch of color somewhere). Am a military veteran with many years of service. I am also a college graduate. I enjoy relaying my ideas and thoughts on this electronic format. I like to discuss everything from politics, current events, humor, women issues and pretty much anything else I can stick in here and get away with. ;-)
