My wild love went riding
She rode all the day
She rode to the devil
And asked him to pay
The devil was wiser
It's time to repent
He asked her to give back
The money she spent
My wild love went riding
She rode to the sea
She gathered together
Some shells for her hair
She rode and she rode on
She rode for a while
Then stopped for an evening
And laid her head down
She rode on to Christmas
She rode to the farm
She rode to Japan
And re-entered a town
By this time the weather
Had changed one degree
She asked for the people
To let her go free
My wild love went riding
She rode for an hour
She rode and she rested
And then she rode on

Little about LOVE




Wednesday, 8 February 2012
People sometimes ask me what it's like to have three teenage girls in
our house, to which I have a pat answer: hair products and hormones.
Actually, that's not the half of it. We have more than our share of
drama in the home, and it's not just genetically inherited. The ongoing
trials and tribulations of "amour" would fill many pages of teen love quotes.
With all the self-awareness, peer pressure, physical and emotional
changes taking place in a relatively short period of time, it's
difficult for adolescents to keep it all together, which explains their
random emotional outbursts and irrational behavior. Fortunately, there
are plenty of experienced older-generation types who have seen it all
and can offer reflective insights on love - not just necessarily for teens, but all of us.
Dr. Dale Turner, the respected author and minister, authored uplifting articles for anyone seeking encouragement and answers to life's quandaries. His love quote: "Listen! Encourage. Say something. Do something. Be yourself. Love" is a good place to start for any age group. This emphatically punchy advice must certainly be directed at teens, since apparently they respond well to short blips of information - especially those transmitted through Internet videos and blogs.
Henry Ward Beecher, another prominent clergyman and social reformer, summarized teen love in one of his colorful love quotes full of fiery imagery: "Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable." You go, Henry!
My youngest daughter has had a crush on a fellow high schooler for two years. She admires him from afar and when I chidingly asked if she was going to ask him to the a dance, she cringed in horror at the thought. Her biggest concern is keeping her face from turning beet red when in his presence. Just being close to him evidently carries much greater potential for heavy sweating rather than heavy petting. Satirist and magazine editor H.L. Mencken summarized this in one of his teen love quotes, "To be in love is merely to be in a perpetual state of anesthesia." It explains the blank stare observed when one is in near their beloved, and the lack of a rational thought process in discerning the feelings of the opposite sex, prompting one of the more telling love quotes, "Don't say you love me unless you really mean it, because I might do something crazy like believe it."
For some teens, relationships take a back seat to other matters such
as studies and sports. Perhaps those who are wrapped up in pursuits that
are more intellectual could relate to one of the great love quotes by beauty maven Lisa Hoffman, "Love is like pi -- natural, irrational, and very important."
How many of us wish our offspring were as obsessed with good grades as
they are with the opposite sex? We also hope for our children that they
learn to love
themselves before they become engrossed in a relationship where they
lose not only their innocence, but their self-identity and sense of
value. These adolescents would do well to read the love quotes of inspirational author and self-help guru Louise Hay for positive direction. "Love is the great miracle cure. Loving ourselves works miracles in our lives" is one of many love quotes that teens in love
would do well to write on a sticky note or on their binder or any of a
million places they seem to doodle. Maybe they can write it on a mirror
so when they are using those vast amounts of hair products it will sink
into their ever-expanding brains!
