It is when all these tiers and goals and wishes don't mean anything anymore that you know that you are truly in love.

I couldn't have said it better myself...god it's good to see that I'm not alone in thinking this way. What I don't understand is how some people could NOT see this for it's simplicity? Life really isn't all that complicated if you're willing to give a little too.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
