“When all is said and done, you are part of me. That's the way it was meant to be. People are brought together for a reason, everything happens for a reason. I believe the reason that you and me were brought together was because we complete one another. We fill in each other's missing spots with love. And if someday God decides to tear us apart, I trust that there is a reason. Cause if there is a reason for love, there is a reason for life beyond it.”

The capacity to be alone is the capacity to love (Osho)
"The capacity to be alone is the capacity to love. It may look paradoxical to you, but it is not. It is an existential truth: only those persons who are capable of love, of sharing, of going into the deepest core of the other person - without possessing the other, without becoming dependent on the other, without reducing the other to a thing, and without becoming addicted to the other.
They allow the other absolute freedom, because they know if the other leaves, they will be as happy as they are now. Their happiness cannot be taken by the other, because it is not given by the other.
Then why do they want to be together? It is no longer a need; it is a luxury. Try to understand it. Real persons love each other as a luxury; it is not a need. They enjoy sharing: they have so much joy; they would like to pour it into somebody. And they know how to play their life as a solo instrument.
The solo flute player knows how to enjoy his flute alone. And if he comes and finds a tabla player, a solo tabla player, they will enjoy being together and creating a harmony between the flute and the tabla. Both will enjoy it: They will both pour their richness into each other"
I have a print out of this on my desk and i read it everyday, it's one thing to read it but an other to be constantly reminded.
Love
Everyone thinks that loves the answer and that once they fall in love everything will run smoothly what they don't realise is that love is really a vessel for expressing your deepest core fully and openly, for man, if you are unable to flow with the harmony of your purpose, love is merely a distraction which will countlessly upset you and leave you thinking why you are making the same mistakes.
If love and openness is an expression of your everyday life, you will realise love never ends, just because you've broken up with your lover, doesn't mean your no longer in love,you will always remain as love because its who you are and not what you need.
