Thomas Kempis :
Love feels no burden, thinks nothing of trouble, attempts what is above its strength.... It is therefore able to undertake all things, and it completes many things, and warrants them to take effect, where he who does not love would faint and lie down.
#
Love
#
Lies and Lying

Friends and Friendship
Gift it
