Anniversary Wishes to Buggybear and Mousey

Kahlil Gibran on Marriage ~~ From Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet ~~ ~~ Then Almitra spoke again and said, And what of Marriage, Master? ~~ And he answered saying: ~~ You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore. ~~ You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days. ~~ Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God. ~~ But let there be spaces in your togetherness, ~~ And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. ~~ ~~ Love one another, but make not a bond of love: ~~ Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. ~~ Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup. ~~ Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf. ~~ Sing and dance together and be joyous, ~~ but let each one of you be alone, ~~ Even as the strings of a lute are alone ~~ though they quiver with the same music. ~~ ~~ Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. ~~ For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. ~~ And stand together yet not too near together: ~~ For the pillars of the temple stand apart, ~~ And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow. ~~ ~~
