Today being Valentine's day is usually a day for red- roses, clothes, candies wrapped up in cute little red tinfoil, but today let's remember all those ladies in our families that suffer from heart disease. Let's help them get active and not just sitting at their sewing machines!
My husband recently passed away at what to me is a young age. It was semi expected in that we knew that at some point he would either have a massive stroke or a massive heart attack. Most of his heart problems, he was born with. However, it was just an ordinary operation he went in for and God ordained that it was G's time to go home. This morning while I was thinking about Valentine's day and how we would very often celebrate very simply by me cooking his favourite meal, setting the coffee table up with a nice table topper, candles, one flower and then we would sit on the floor with our backs against the sofa, eating, talking, joking and truly enjoying each other, it dawned on me that today I would use this day to remind each person I met to never take their significant other for granted. Do something special or say something special every day and as Mary did in the Bible, keep these things in your heart always so they can become a treasure later.
Enjoy this beautiful day for love in a unique way.

Hi Jean:
Valentines Day is especially hard for us, isn't it? Vann asked me to marry him on Valentine's Day, so it was a doubly special day for us. You are right to advise people to value their spouses/mates and treat each day together as special. ANd I love your reference to Mary.
I'll get our blog link posted in he list of UFO busters right away. Glad to have you in The Land of Blog.
