Lost in Love

I first of all want to give all the credit to an old class mate of mine that took these great shots-Jayme. With her permission from her website I had to post these. Have you ever loved someone so much that everything around you seems to disappear but them when you are together? It is so fun to be lost in love. I love the mystery that surrounds love, it makes you want to be in on their secret- It would be so fun to capture shots like this with Trevor.

"A true wife makes a man's life nobler, stronger, grander, by the omnipotence of her love; turning all the forces of manhood upward and heavenward. While she clings to him in holy confidence and loving dependence she brings out in him whatever is noble and richest in his being. She inspires him with her courage and earnestness. She beautifies his life. She softens whatever is rude and harsh in his habits or spirits. She clothes him with the gentler graces of refined and cultured manhood. While she yields to him and never disregards his lightest wish, she is really his queen, ruling his whole life and leading him onward and upward in every proper path." -JR Miller

I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage, with my books, my family, and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post which any human power can give.

"The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers."

"I predict future happiness for Americans, if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

"Governement big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have. The course of history shows us that as a government grows, liberty decreases."

"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be."

"The end of democracy and the defeat of the American Revolution will occur when government falls into the hands of lending institutions and moneyed incorporations."

Thomas Jefferson (It's quite evident that I relish in his brilliance.)

"Gratitude is the beginning of civilty, of decency and goodness, of a recognition that we cannot afford to be arrogant. We should walk with the knowledge that we will need help every step of the way."

"Hatred always fails and bitterness always destroys. Are there virtues more in need of application in our day, a time marked by litigious proceedings and heated exchanges, than those of forgiving, forgetting, and extending mercy to those who may have wronged us or let us down?"

"Civilty carries with it the essence of courtesy, politeness, and consideration of others. All of the education and accomplishments in the world will not count for much unless they are accompanied by marks of gentility, of respect for others, of going the extra mile."

"In leadership, in standing for principle, there is loneliness. But men and women of integrity must live with their convictions. Unless they do so, they are miserable."
