I spent a whole lot of Valentine-less Valentine's days. And yet somehow managed to find the love of my life anyway. And the really intriguing part is that finding him was a by-product of discovering myself.
Not that I went on any Big Deal walkabout of self discovery or anything. I just shook myself loose of some long held notions, and there I was. And soon after, there HE was. Some luck, huh?
We are probably not going to make 57+ years together like my Mom & Dad -- got too late a start. But I look forward to seeing how many we do manage to chalk up...and making each one count.
Here's my favorite picture of M&D:
I hope that you love this Valentine's Day -- and that you remember that romantic love is just a tiny part of the love that is out there -- there's all kinds of love to embrace, if you just open yourself up to it. And the more receptive you are to that greater love, the more love will find you.
Love you! <3
