“We can’t help who we love. Love isn’t logical, or even our choice. Love chooses us.”

“Love isn't logical, or even our choice. Love chooses us. Sometimes things have to get worse before they get better.”

“We are who we are, be­cause of those we choose to love and be­cause of those who love us.”

“The question of what we are can only be answered by ourselves. We each decide what we are by the life choices we make. How we were made, who are parents are, where we are from, the color of our skin, who we choose to love, all those things do not define us. Our actions define us, and will keep defining us until even after death.”

“And I shall set this last truth down. We are who we are because of those we choose to love and because of those who love us.”

“Our flaws are obvious, yet we are loved and able to love, if we choose, because there is that bit of the divine still smoldering in us.”
