About
"I used to be a hopeless romantic. I am still a hopeless romantic.
I used to believed that love was the highest value. I still believe that love is the highest value.
I don't expect to be happy. I don't imagine that I will find love, whatever that means, or that if I do find it, it will make me happy.
I don't think of love as the answer or solution. I think of love as a force of nature -
as strong as the sun, as necessary, as impersonal, as gigantic, as impossible,
as scorching as it is warming, as drought-making as it is life-giving.
And when it burns out, the planet dies."
