celebrate love

today is valentines day, the day when all of america is forced to celebrate love. i am not going to rant and rave about how valentines day is a load of horse-hooey cooked up by the card companies or anything like that. that is well worn territory and need not be tread upon anymore.


what i am going to say is this: love needs to be thought about and acted out on a daily basis. whether or not you have a beautiful wife (like mine) , husband, boyfriend, girlfriend, partner, anything, love is a necessity to everyday life. it is not easy. i harbor my fair share of anger, i dislike people as much as the next guy, but being a person of faith i fail daily to live up to the expectations that my faith brings with it. to love regardless of anything else. pure, simple, love. easily said, not so easily done.
