Emily Giffin...love is the sum of our choices, the strength of our commitments, the ties that bind us together.
About This Quote
We can never know the depth of love, but we can know the beauty of loving. And the beauty of loving is that it is not just a feeling or a thought, but something we do and something we feel and something we take responsibility for. Love, to me, is not just a word. It is a way of living, and it is something we choose to do because it makes us happy and it gives us strength and courage to face our lives without fear.
