The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image. If in loving them we do not love what they are, but only their potential likeness to ourselves, then we do not love them: we only love the reflection of ourselves we find in them.

Beautiful coffee art work there! I like the new font for your quotes. I hope you’ve had a great weekend, Monte.

Thanks, Earl! I like the font also. Not to bold or gaudy but separates the quote rather well. We have had beautiful weather all weekend. A bit windy on my bicycle ride to coffee but having that moon setting above the mountains on the way was perfect. I hope you had a great weekend, also.
