Can we just shout a big "THANK YOU!" and an "AMEN"! to this fine specimen.

media naranja
(noun) A Spanish idiom, a media naranja is defined as your soulmate. Literally translated to “half of an orange,” your media naranja has connotations of being your better half and the person, who completes or complements you. Tender and sweet, it is speculated that this term holds its origins in Greek mythology. According to Aristophanes’ speech from Plato’s Symposium, human beings were once composed of three genders (androgynous, male, and female). Due to our insensitivity and disobedience to the gods, we were split in two, leading us to roam the Earth endlessly and tragically searching for our beloved other half, hence your other half of the orange.

My other half
Eventually soulmates meet, for they have the same hiding place.
Robert Brault (via wordsnquotes)
#soulmates
Do not pass me off as a delicate flower. I’ve bled like you. I’ve scrapped the skin on my knees and ripped the seams of my fingertips like any other man. And just as a man, I’ve ached in my bones and forged fury from my person. I am as delicate as a flower with prickly thorns.

I’m not really so hard & cynical after all — in fact I’m still dangerously soft.
Tennessee Williams, Notebooks (via wordsnquotes)
You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise.
Maya Angelou, “Still I Rise” (via wordsnquotes)

You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant.
Harlan Ellison (via wordsnquotes)
Ignorance isn't bliss!!
You looked me with such tenderness behind your eyes that I fought the urge to run so much my hands trembled. You thought I was just nervous, but it was for all the wrong reasons. For once in my life I am certain of something, I never have to be afraid of you hurting me. You’re so sure of how you feel, you forget that I haven’t dropped my sword. My amour still stands, although the warmth of your embrace may melt the metal.
