Romance Quote by Steven Decker — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The calming presence of the forest merged with the beating hearts of the human beings, each of whom was emanating the same peaceful energy that Emily was feeling. This is magical, she thought. I could live my life doing this. And then the moment passed.”
