43 Things: I Have Done This --> To Love And Be Loved In Return

Moulin Rouge.

I remember the lines from Moulin Rouge that goes The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is to love and be loved in return.”

I don’t know where to begin to describe how it feels to love and be loved back, how it changes you, how it makes you feel so alive each day. I can only count myself lucky that I loved truly and greatly once in my lifetime and was loved with the same fervor. If I may borrow the words of Delphine de Girardin:

To love the one who loves you
To admire the one who admires you
In a word, to be the idol of one’s idol
Is exceeding the limit of human joy
It is stealing fire from heaven
