“Love doesn't make the world go 'round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.” 

                                                                    ~ Franklin Jones

 

The holiday of love is upon us!  As someone not in a romantic relationship, I could avoid the topic of Valentine’s Day like the plague, but instead I want to embrace it.  Love is always worth celebrating! 

 

It may not be a day of flowers and candy for me, but it will be a day to celebrate friendship and love for all.  Love for one another – caring for others -- is what makes life worthwhile.  It is our reason for being and our purpose for life.

 

Romantic love is nice, but even if we don’t have romantic love doesn’t mean we need to shy away from celebrating love.  Love is for everyone!  Knowing that we are connected to a caring world and have the capacity to love and be loved is something pretty incredible.

 

                                                             Happy Valentine’s Day!

                                                                            Love,
