The Great Peconic and Great Loves



Great loves, like great musicians, scientists, or writers come once every two or three generations. Those who find  great love, make deep connections, that extend beyond death into eternity.

Great Peconic Bay, Long Island, New York
Here are some thoughts from Kahlil Gibran  that are part of the corresponedence between him and Mary Haskell:

Among intelligent people the surest basis for marriage is friendship - the sharing of real interests- the ability to fight out ideas together and understand each other's thoughts and dreams.
(Gibran's words quoted from Mary Haskell's journal dated 26th May 1923)

What difference does it make, whether you live in a big city or in a community of homes ? The real life is within.
(Gibran's words quoted from Mary Haskell's journal dated 27th May 1923)


Something wonderful begins within us  when we find the right person in our lives. It is real. Let's call it love.
