Romantic Love Letter by Lewis Carroll to May Mileham
“7 Lushington Road, Eastbourne
Dearest May,
Thank you very much indeed for the peaches. They were delicious. Eating one was almost as nice as kissing you; Of course not quite; I think, if I had to give the exact measurement, I should say three – quarters as nice; We are having such a lovely time here; and the sands are beautiful. I only wish I could some day come across you, washing your pocket -handkerchief in a pool among the rocks? But I wander on the beach, and look for you, in vain; and then I say, Where is May? And the stupid boatmen reply, It isn’t May, sir? It’s September?’ But it doesn’t comfort me.
Always your Loving C.L.D.”
Love has many different meanings in English
Love has many different meanings in English, from something that gives a little pleasure (“I loved that meal”) to something one would die for (patriotism, pairbonding).
Love can describe an intense feeling of affection, an emotion or an emotional state. In ordinary use, it usually refers to interpersonal love. Probably due to its psychological relevance, love is one of the most common themes in art.
Just as there are many types of lovers, there are many kinds of love. Love is inherent in all human cultures. It is precisely these cultural differences that make any universal definition of love difficult to establish. See the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis.
Expressions of love may include the love for a “soul” or mind, the love of laws and organizations, love for a body, love for nature, love of food, love of money, love for learning, love of power, love of fame, love for the respect of others, etcetera. Different people place varying degrees of importance on the kinds of love they receive. Love is essentially an abstract concept, easier to experience than to explain.
Today was one of the best days I can remember as far as my love life goes.
Today was one of the best days I can remember as far as my love life goes. I have been married for over 15 years to a wonderful man. We live in Dartmouth, Massachusetts near the water, and enjoy a fulfilling life.
I am not really complaining, because it is like winning the lottery 9 out of 10 times, you can’t win them all. I am thankful that I have such a great family and an incredible husband. I just took the romantic/emotional issue as just a fact of life. Like I said we cannot win them all, no one is perfect.
Well, I guess I was wrong.
Well, I guess I was wrong. Frank proved to me yesterday that he is the ultimate husband. When he came home from a long day at work driving his truck I was so happy to see him. I had dinner all ready and both of our children were home and we enjoyed a great dinner. It was fantastic having the whole family together.
Everyone was in a great mood and you could feel the love around the table. Frank seemed to be in a real jovial mood, monkeying around with the kids and being the great dad that he always is. We finished up dinner, cleaned up and started to get ready for bed. I truly felt content and could not imagine being happier. Frank was acting a little strange and goofy so I asked him what was going on. He said he had a surprise for me, I was so excited. Frank isn’t usually the surprising type so I was extremely intrigued.
Then, Frank started to get serious. He started to tell me things, emotional things, he really began to open up to me. I couldn’t believe it. I thought my husband was great, but now he was talking to me about feelings, it was amazing. I was ecstatic. So, we just chatted for a while, then when I didn’t think it could get any better Frank made the most amazing gesture that a man could make to a woman. He said this to me, “Honey, I have loved you for so long, I have always been faithful and I consider you to be the best wife a man could have. I feel honored that you decided to spend your days on this earth with me.” I was speechless. This was coming from a man who struggled to ask me out on our first date 17 years ago. To hear him express his feelings so beautifully and that his feelings were so loving towards me was actually bliss. I couldn’t remember being happier or more content.
At times there may arise a situation when our action may hurt the feelings of our loved one. But as fast as we realize our mistake we take the initiative to correct the situation and win back their heart. Sending apology messages is the humble way to let the other person know that you are really sorry for your behavior and is willing to make amends.
The apology message must convey your heart felt remorse. They can be emotional as well as straight forward depending upon the depth of your relation. If you think that there is a scope for explanation in your apology message then present it in clear words without ambiguities.
Sometimes we may say or do things that we don’t intent to. Our behavior sometimes may not find the consent of our loved ones. These can lead to rifts within relations. If you feel that what you have done isn’t right and you unknowingly have hurt the feelings of your closed one then swallow your pride and seek apology.
