What is love, but an emotion,
So strong and so pure,
That nurtured and shared with another
All tests it will endure?
What is love, but a force
To bring the mighty low,
With the strength to shame the mountains
And halt time’s ceaseless flow?
What is love, but a triumph,
A glorious goal attained,
The union of two souls, two hearts
A bond the angels have ordained?
What is love, but a champion,
To cast the tyrant from his throne,
And raise the flag of truth and peace,
And fear of death o’erthrow?
What is love, but a beacon,
To guide the wayward heart,
A blazing light upon the shoals
That dash cherished dreams apart?
And what is love, but forever,
Eternal and sincere,
A flame that through wax and wane
Will outlive life’s brief years?
So I’ll tell it on the mountaintops,
In all places high and low,
That love for you is my reason to be,
And will never break or bow.

Cool...
BEIJING, China (Reuters) -- Rice fills the bowls on many Chinese tables -- and also the cracks in its ancient buildings, and maybe even the Great Wall, Xinhua news agency reported.
"The legend that ancient Chinese craftsmen used glutinous rice porridge in the mortar while building ramparts has been verified," it said in a report seen on Monday.
Archaeologists researching an ancient wall around the city of Xi'an, a former imperial capital and home to the famed terra cotta warriors, were stumped by the ingredients of a resilient mortar holding bricks together.
The hardened paste reacted similarly to glutinous, or sticky, rice in chemical tests, Qin Jianming, a researcher with the Xi'an Preservation and Restoration Center of Cultural Relics, was quoted as saying.
"Thus we can conclude that the sticky material was in the mortar," Qin said.

Risk Taker, High Energy, Optimistic, Seeks Predictability
You take risks in love and you charge out into the world. However, you like to know a great deal about who you are with and what this relationship is all about. You are the kind of person who knows your strengths and you know what you like in another person. Once you know you are on firm, familiar and worthy ground, you will take on a tough project, or go after a romantic relationship with a lot of enthusiasm and a strong belief that you can make things work. But you usually feel this way only if you are with the kind of people you have liked/loved in the past, or it's the kind of situation you understand because you have done something like it before. In general, you like dating the same kind of person (same class, a certain look, similar goals and values) than someone exotic to you. You take your risks elsewhere.
