“Learn to like what doesn't cost much.
Learn to like reading, conversation, music.
Learn to like plain food, plain service, plain cooking.
Learn to like fields, trees, brooks, hiking, rowing, climbing hills.
Learn to like people, even though some of them may be different...different from you.
Learn to like to work and enjoy the satisfaction doing your job as well as it can be done.
Learn to like the song of birds, the companionship of dogs.
Learn to like gardening, puttering around the house, and fixing things.
Learn to like the sunrise and sunset, the beating of rain on the roof and windows, and the gentle fall of snow on a winter day.
Learn to keep your wants simple and refuse to be controlled by the likes and dislikes of others.”

Love. Ain't it sweet.

I found myself this morning at 3 am,
watching Jerry MaGuire.
Wishing my name was Dorthy,
longing to say the most popular love quote...
"Shut up... You had me at 'Hello'... You had me at 'Hello..."
Dying to wear those 90's clothes, and not have people judge me.
Hoping that someday, someone will love me that much.
That they'll ramble about it.
Just so I can say that one line.
Call it cheesy, but I call that good ole' love.
