There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable.

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning.
- James Earl Jones (via zodiaccity)
Love someone when they least deserve it, because that is when they truly need it.
- Swedish proverb (via phil0kalia)
Everyone should watch this, whether you are Christian or not. Love, empathy…so many qualities missing in our society and from those who profess to follow Christ.
Love never hates anyone, never reproves anyone, never condemns anyone, never grieves anyone, never abhors anyone, neither faithful nor infidel nor stranger nor sinner nor fornicator, nor anyone impure, but instead it is precisely sinners, and weak and negligent souls that it loves more, …, imitating Christ Who called sinners, and ate and drank with them.
- Abba Ammonas (via phil0kalia)
No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.
- Nelson Mandela (via onlinecounsellingcollege)
