Love Quote by Austin V. Songer
““Love is not a weakness, Love is strength, because when a person put himself or herself out there and risk their heart to love someone else, they are risking their soul, and their identity, because being in love and being in a relationship, your identity becomes paired with someone else identity and you become one identity and no longer separate identities and this is what really makes a relationships and love so risky, because over time the one identity no longer is dependent upon the separate identities because they no longer exist by themselves, because they have become one.””
