Valentine

The stores are crowded today. The flowers are on back order; The candy is flying off the shelves. Trying to decide what to get that will suffice the occasion. Yet the day comes to an end the flowers wither and die. The candy gone and sentiments have already been spoken. Tomorrow we go on with our lives forgetting to be kind to one another unwilling to forgive the little things like socks on the floor dirty cup on table. Who thinks about making LOVE an everyday celebration for expressing love does not require price tags or fancy gifts ; it takes real effort and if any gift were I to receive of any true significance I'd much rather not display my real sentiments for public spectacle but to know and feel that I am much loved in my private dwellings.

Lovely thought during this time of commercially manufactured love.
