So, another Valentine's Day is almost here,
but what is Valentine's Day?
This is supposed to be the one day that LOVE is in
the air for one and all.
Is that true?
Can one give one self a valentine?
Valentine's Day to me is a journey down the road in
the search for that something.
In school we all had to give each other Valentine cards
to fill the Valentine's bags we made in art then there was
a party--remember those.
When you got to the upper grades on this day you may have
seen candy given and maybe even flowers for the steadys
that were there.
Moving on now out of school and into college how many future engagements happened this day.
Again, moving on to employment and marriage and finding the one, if that is even possible.
Is there anything wrong with loving oneself and just being happy they way you are
or
Do you have to find that ONE that might not be down that road that it seems that everyone travels.
You have hearts and flowers and candy and rings and something special on this day.
I mainly give myself a hug and a glass of wine and say
Happy Valentine's Day!

Standing Still
There are very few moments in life where time truly stands still. When your breath is taken from your chest and your body hangs weightless in that moment. Just long enough for it to stay with you from that day onwards. Deep in the red sands of the Australian Outback, I found that moment and clung to it forever.
