"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable."
— C.S. Lewis (The Four Loves)

Cool quote Linds! So true...there is aways risk and pain in love but also so much reward. I think love is such an interesting topic. I wish there was a major for it. I would love to do love research. It is very unrational and unexplainable phenomenon.
