Valentine’s for Luvvies Challenge 2019 – 15th Feb

Hey Everyone! HAPPY FRIYAY!

Welcome to my ninth and the last installment of The Valentine’s for Luvvies Challenge 2019 – which is being run by Rory at A Guy Called Bloke and Doodlepip’s Adventures. YES, we did it y’all! *woot woot*

PS – Yet again, I’m collating all three together for easy readability! *rebel alert*

Let’s get the fun started –

1 Name the Greek equivalent of the Roman god Cupid?

Eros

2 Who once said ‘to love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance’?

Oscar Wilde

3 Who wrote the song “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” whilst in the bath?

The song was written by Mercury as a tribute to Elvis Presley. Roger Taylor added in an interview that Mercury wrote it in just 10 minutes while lounging in a bath in the Bayerischer Hof Hotel in Munich during one of their extensive Munich recording sessions.

4 Write your definition of love – how do you interpret it? Include a quote that best describes love in your eyes.

Quoting RUMI, yet again –

“Love is the cure, for your pain will keep giving birth to more pain until your eyes constantly exhale love as effortlessly as your body yields its scent.”
― Rumi

Dedicated to the LOVE of my life, my HUZ, this is my version of what LOVE means to me –

LOVE is my CURE!

For every pain that I assumed,
Your touch so divinely becalmed.
Your love is my antidote,
It heals me, soft-pedalling every storm.

The way that you embrace me,
It rescues me from the displease that creeps from within.
In your insinuating smile, my solace I seek,
You are my heart, my soul, my everything.

You are my “knight in shining armour”,
Saving me from my forever malady.
You are the reason in “eternal love” I believe,
You are my cure. You are my remedy.

5 Who said this?
“Love is like the wind, you can’t see it, but you can feel it.”

Nicholas Sparks

“Love doesn’t make the world go round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.”

Franklin P. Jones

“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”

Robert A. Heinlein

“Love is a smoke and is made with the fume of sighs.”

William Shakespeare

“Love is the answer to everything. It’s the only reason to do anything. If you don’t write stories you love, you’ll never make it. If you don’t write stories that other people love, you’ll never make it.”

Ray Bradbury

“We’re all a little weird, and life’s a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”

Dr. Seuss

“Life is a flower of which love is the honey.”

Victor Hugo

“Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.”

Aristotle

“Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart, and the senses.”

Lao Tzu

“Love is a serious mental disease.”

Plato
