PHOTO OF THE DAY - THE BEAUTIFUL MESS OF LOVE BY ASIKO

Happy Saint Valentine's day all, how are you spending the day? So while browsing through instagram, to see who got flowers, engaged, who said yes or did something different, I came across this lovely picture and write up from Asiko the artist page and I couldn't resist sharing! Asiko is one of my favourite photographer, he is deep, soulful and there is this contemporary thing about his crafts, check this one out! The picture and the words of love is amazing.


asiko_artistThe beautiful mess of Love

Extract from Captain Corelli’s Mandolin. “Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your root was so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. that is just being in love, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Those that truly love have roots that grow towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossoms have fallen from their branches, they find that they are one tree and not two.” Ode to the one I love, Love can be a beautiful mess that I am happy to share with you my love @lotionspotionsm 


So lets gist, how did you celebrate valentines day?
