The Italians have a way about their language, their expression of love through syllables, hand motions and heart. Beautiful.

Maureen... how can we live without it, love's passionate arrival. The translation hits home.

Tonia, Thank you!

Richard, THanks for shopping by.

marianne, nice to see you.

I truly believe without passion -- what do we really have or who are we? I try to live with passion in my heart, mind and soul. About everything I do...especially when I love & care deeply about someone. Hopefully, that passion follows me in everything I do & believe in. I have never meet a person who was "passionate" about what they were doing that didn't succeed on some level & also had the strength to do what they believed in. I am happy to see this translation hits home to others. ~mo-zy

Maureen, that is about the best translation of my emotional apparatus in life. I've never heard my own existential need for love expressed so completely. And in so few words!

Peter, who hasn't changed icons. That's Jason G. Apr 2, 2007, 2:04pm EDT

The language itself is a form of love-making. Are there any variant translations for "arrive?"

Maureen Sullivan Stemberg Apr 2, 2007, 10:38pm EDT

Rush, Thank you! It truly was my pleasure & the way I feel...

d.m. big "WOW" --I am so very happy these few words have touch in this way. Sometimes,
simple is best. eh?

Peter, I couldn't agree with you more. It is a form love-making on so many levels. As for the word "arrive" I love to here from you about that you brought up.

Tim, my dear friend...you never cease to amaze me!! Come run away with me? I'll give you 24 hrs. or else I take the deal off the table. You know how I seen how THAT can be done. I already had an "invitation" by Mr. O'Sullivan. Hmmmm. me thinks, you maybe related? In any case, if you accept me offer you, I and your daughter will all live on Park Ave. -- must be a Park Ave. by Syracuse? LOL

The urgency is true to the experience. Inside of inundating passion, the other feels to be an existential grounding. You get right to it. mmm mmm-- efficient phrase power!

Don't know WHEN you will read this but we just heard tonight that you are having a very rough time, physically - so want to say, Get well Soon, and please know that prayers, flute songs, incense, meditation and every kind of positive thing is being lifted up on your behalf. You take care of yourself!!!

Take care.

Italian has such a way of making something ordinary into something transcendant.
