HOW DO I LOVE THEE?

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

For the ends of Being an Ideal Grace.

I love thee to the level of everyday's

Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;

I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.

I love thee with the passion put to use

In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost saints,--

I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my life!--

and, if God choose, I shall but love thee better after death.

~~Elizabeth Barrett Browning~~

I'm trying to finish a book right now. It's entitled "Not By Power or Wealth Alone" which was written by former Sen. Jovito Salonga. It's a nice book. Promise! Hope a lot of people can read it especially those who are in power. There are so many things to learn from it.
