Will You Be My Valentine?

Be My ValentineHappy Valentine’s Day, friends!! So, I have a very important question for you today: Will you be my Valentine??

I know, I know. This all may be a bit forward of me. I mean, I know I tend to put it all out there on this blog and in my writing, especially where my emotions and feelings are concerned, but I can be a pretty shy, introverted person, to be honest. After all, I’d never dream of just going up to someone and asking them on a date or breaking out in song and declaring my love for someone, but make no mistake! I am a hardcore romantic through and through.

And, really, I’m not just talking about romantic love here. Love is love is love is love. It’s all powerful and all-encompassing, if you ask me. The love of family, the love of friends, the love of our furry friends — it all lifts us up and keeps us going, on Valentine’s Day and the other 364 days of the year. As cliche as it sounds, I just love, well, LOVE!!

Anyway, I suppose that brings me back to that important question I asked at the beginning of this post. We’ve got a pretty powerful and amazing community here on the blog and I’m so glad that we can be here for each other! The world is a dark enough place. I’m so proud of us for spreading lots of love, happiness and light.

Remember those cool Valentines you used to pass out in elementary school? Well, I wish I had one to give to each of you today!! But we have each other — today and every day — and that’s even better, don’t you think??

Be My ValentineWhat are you doing to celebrate Valentine’s Day, friends?? Here’s hoping you’re surrounded by love in all its wonderful and glorious forms!! xoxo

    Thanks for your commentary on CNN.com. The decline is civility and common courtesy is very worrisome. We must speak out, as you have done. Thanks!
