No, it is not about how well-read or well-travelled you are. Not even the glittery degrees and hi-fi colleges you attended. Nor how conventionally or unconventionally beautiful you are. The only thing that matters is when my eyes rest on yours, do they feel at peace? When I hear your voice after a day long work, does it serenade me with peace? When we are done arguing and shouting at each other, does it take us no time to find peace? How far does peace reside from us?

Love is a long term game. It is not the imminent groove in the song but the background music. The background music for the long term isn't good enough if it turns into noise. Happiness is ephemeral, overrated. Attraction is initial, important but doesn't affect the equation in the long run. Peace is the only glue that can stick two together. For me, the most honest way I could express my love to you is:
you bring me peace.
