An Ideal Partner: The Search Is On

Millions will be looking for the "love of their lives" until they die. They will look, and never realize that real love might already have found them. Being loved means owning up to the responsibility of being loved, which is -- in the long run -- more difficult than asking for (or looking for) love.

Complete Union: Honor The Soul First

When a woman and man join, the coming together of bodies is the least of the meetings taking place.
