be mine. . . .
"i love you between shadow and soul. i love you as the plant that hasn't
bloomed yet, and carries hidden within itself the light of flowers. i love
you without knowing how, or when, or from where. because of you, the
dense fragrance that rises from the earth lives in my body, rioting with
hunger for the eternity of our victorious kisses."
- pablo neruda, translated by stephen tapscott
"the desire to force love to live only in its most positive form is what causes love ultimately to fall over dead."
- clarissa pinkola estes
no bull: february 9th taurus horoscope from rob brezsny: in my view, 2010 is the year you should expand your world. that could mean enlarging your circle of allies or building a bigger web of connections. it might mean broadening your appeal or widening your frame of reference or opening your mind to possibilities you've been closed to. it may even involve extending your territory or increasing the range of your travels. however you choose to expand, taurus, i urge you to put love at the heart of your efforts. love should be the fuel that motivates you and the reference point that ensures you're always making smart moves. for inspiration, memorize this line by poet elizabeth barrett browning: "i love thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach."in your case, taurus, "thee" should mean the whole world.
i finally broke down and listened to sade's new song "solider of love" . . amazing! only sade can bring back enchantment to this planet: "i lost the use of my heart, but i'm still alive" . . .gasp! can't wait to hear the whole cd! thank you sade!
