If you blow too hard and too fast, the balloon pops and likewise the relationship breaks. But if you take things slowly and let the balloon of love stretch on its own, it grows into a huge, prosperous balloon, full of love.

So when you are in love, push the relationship forward slowly and gently and the balloon will grow comfortably into a strong, immense love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2177</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65665]]></link><description><![CDATA[To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65665</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's OK.
