@KhrystynaCherry@HJ_Mendoza07@latinedisce This specific page specializes in Vulgate Latin (the Latin used in scripture). For more poetic Latin dialect look towards Ciceronian style Latin, or Eleanor Dickey's ancient Latin. They're both pre-Roman dialect (meaning before religion adopted the language).

"Boundaries are not barriers to keep things from leaving or entering, or even a sign of an end. They are the the place where things meet, interact, or converge. "
"Time and space, however, each by itself, can be represented in intuition even without matter; but matter cannot be so represented without time and space. " - Arthur Schopenhauer -
@tsbabyshy Yes. The better question would be, why wouldn't someone be proud of the person they date? A real relationship isn't convenience, accessibility, or chasing a "fetish". It's honesty, reliability, companionship, and more. All proud, honorable attributes. Just my opinion.
