Love Quote of the Week

He felt now that he was not simply close to her, but that he did not know where he ended and she began.

Leo Tolstoy
He felt now that he was not simply close to her, but that he did not know where he ended and she began.  

Leo Tolstoy

:heart::heart::heart:

When you are in love you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.

Dr. Seuss

:heart::heart::heart:

A bell is no bell 'til you ring it,
a song is no song 'til you sing it,
And love in your heart
Wasn'’t put there to stay -
Love isn’'t love
'Til you give it away.


Oscar Hammerstein

:heart::heart::heart:

We were given: Two hands to hold. Two legs to walk. Two eyes to see. Two ears to listen. But why only one heart? Because the other was given to someone else. For us to find.

Source Unknown

:heart::heart::heart:

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

:heart::heart::heart:

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy.
Love is never boastful, nor conceited, nor rude;
It is not self-seeking, nor easily angered.
It keeps no record of wrongdoing.
It does not delight in evil,
But rejoices in the truth.
It always protects, trusts, hopes, and preserves.
There is nothing love cannot face;
There is no limit to its faith, hope, and endurance.
In a word, there are three things that last forever:
Faith, hope, and love;
But the greatest of them all is love.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Can you please calm down? I really don't think that your aggressive attitude that you've been showing last days fits the idea of the club. That's the place of love, not hatred, please keep that in mind.

I said before that I accept submissions every day. And I do it once a day, usually at the morning. Another morning comes, and your submissions are already decided.

may I say something to you? I am not being aggressive but do not like being ignored..It is a matter of being courteous.Almost all the time photos get declined anyway What is really funny about all of this is that the photos that I did submit express some kind of love.....so what exactly is this group about anyway?

As I explained before to the author of the photos you submitted - the subject of the group is love and pictures should illustrate love. As love I understand here the bond that connects subjects, and pictures submitted to group should illustrate the bond, not subjects. There are many kinds of love and you can illustrate them in many ways, but I can't accept everything you submit to the club, there ought to be some rules. I can't accept pictures of animals, as they are subject of the love, not illustrations of the bond. And it's not only about animals, I also don't accept portraits of girlfriends or boyfriends, who are sure loved by the authors, but are portraits of subjects, not the bond that connects them.

To be accurate, every photo could be said to illustrate love if you wanted to force it. The picture of girl - because someone loves her, the picture of dog - because his somebody's best friend, the picture of building - because someone kissed their beloved one there, the picture of flower - because it might be given to somebody who is loved... If you think this way I should accept every photo ever made, but this not the point of the group. I try to accept only photos that shows context, where this is clear for the very first sigh that they show a kind of love, without searching or reading the description.

That's why declined some of your friend's photos. They are very nice and they sure show something beautiful, but that's not the club for all of them, some just don't fit here. There are many more clubs that will be glad to accept the photos - clubs about birds, animals, photos in general, and these clubs are much more popular than this one and can bring many more viewers than Hearts-and-Love.

And finally, I'm not ignoring you, I just have life as you do. While making the club I didn't declared that I'm going to be online all the time. I have job, family and health to take care of, I can't respond to you the very minute you wrote something, sometimes you'll need to wait.
