About This Quote

Love gives itself but is not bought. Love is easy to give, but hard to get. It is given without being sought after. Sometimes it is given simply because you feel so strongly about the person that you want him or her in your life.

At other times it is given out of obligation or because you have to for the good of the relationship. However, most often, love is given when the person receiving it does not know that it exists. Love is when you feel something when you see something when your hear something when your think about someone.

Love only exists in that moment when you are experiencing it.
