The magic of purpose and of love in its purest form. Not televison love, with its glare and hollow and sequined glint; not sex and allure, all high shoes and high drama, everything both too small and in too much excess, but just love. Love like rain, like the smell of a tangerine, like a surprise found in your pocket. Deb Caletti
About This Quote

In the quote, the author is attempting to capture the magic of love in its purest form. This is a different kind of love from the feelings we experience in romantic relationships and platonic friendships. Rather than feeling that love is something that we should experience like an addiction, we see that it is a very special and powerful thing that we can allow to guide our lives. We can allow our relationship with the world and with other people to be guided by love and not by any other feeling or reason.
