"A Philosophy of Love..." 

If you love something, set it free. 
If it comes back, it will always be yours. 
If it doesn't come back, it was never yours to 
begin with. 


But... 


If it just sits in your living room, watches your 
TV, messes up your stuff, eats your food, 
uses your telephone, takes your  money, 
and doesn't appear to realize that you 
actually set it free in the first place, 
you either married it or gave birth to it.
