"Love is not what we become, but what 
we already are."

~ Stephen Levine

This is a quote from a post I received on my myspace page and I  thought it would be a good choice for the blog. I had never heard anything from Stephen Levine but this one quote made me think about love and how people look at it. "Love is not what we become, but what we already are." this is can kind of strange since we really can actually become love. Love is already there it is just waiting for someone to come along and complete it. I believe that this quote is trying to teach us that we should not be trying to make someone love us, we should go out and find that one person that will love us for who and what we are. 

This sentence also uses that comma to help break the sentence and make it so the reader has to pause before reading the rest of the quote. This give a certain flow to the sentence that would not be there if the comma was not. 

"A hero is not what we become, but what inspire to be."
