Ask yourself Quote by Geraldine Vermaak

“If only people wouldn't base their love on feelings and emotions the world would suffer a lot less of much needless pain. Ask yourself; if feelings and emotions left out the back door today, would you still be in love with the person you claim to be in love with.” quote by Geraldine Vermaak
