Let's Celebrate Love

Last February, in the spirit of Valentine's Day, some of Bubby and Bean's medium and large sponsors shared their favorite quotes about love. Their picks were so inspiring that I decided to gather up some of these love-themed sayings again this year (and share mine as well).  Whether you're celebrating love for your partner, friends, family, kids, pets or your awesome self this V-day, these words of affection are sure to get you in the loving spirit.  To find out more about the rad people behind the submissions below, just click on their names or on the links below each of their submissions to visit their homes around the web.  And please share your favorite love-inspired quote/lyric/poem in the comments for us to read!


1. MARIA FROM LITTLE TREE:
"Even After All this time the Sun never says to the Earth, 'you owe me.' Look what happens with a love like that, it lights the whole sky." - Hafiz

3. ANDREA FROM GAIA CONCEPTIONS:
My favorite quote is "We are the ones we have been waiting for" by Alicia Walker. This one isn't an obvious love quote but I feel that its message inspires while also being empowering, which I LOVE.

4. SARAH FROM LIFE INTO WORDS:
One of my favorite song lyrics about love comes from "Brightest" by Copeland. "I just know that she warms my heart, and knows what all my imperfections are." It's such a simple but real portrayal of what love is. I helped one of my best friends pick this song to walk down the aisle at her wedding last year, so it's even more special!

5. THE TEAM AT GROOPDEALZ: 
"I could make you happy, make your dreams come true. There's nothing that I would not do. Go to the ends of the Earth for you. To make you feel my love." - Bob Dylan

6. YOURS TRULY
"The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was.  Lovers don't finally meet somewhere.  They're in each other all along." - Rumi.  I designed prints with this simple, beautiful quote that we displayed throughout our wedding venue, and eventually designed more, along with greeting cards, to sell in the Bubby and Bean Art shop.  In my opinion, it so perfectly sums up true love.
