Genuine love creates feelings of warmth, pleasure, safety, stability, and inner peace. — Susan Forward

The part of me which was given up to work, which enabled my wife and child to live in the manner which they unthinkingly demanded, this part of me which kept the wheel turning - a completely fatuous, ego-centric notion! - was the least part of me.
