Every Day Is Valentine's Day!

Ah, the day of love. It's in the air. Can you feel it? The candles, the candy, the romance. A romantic dinner in a quiet cafe, the single candle in a room full of them reflecting in his eyes. He holds my hand in his, and we talk about us. He orders a sinfully good bottle of wine, and our meal is delivered hot and cleverly prepared by a chef who knows we are sitting in his dining room, two people in love. When we get home he will skillfully undress me, and not just with his eyes like he was doing in the restaurant. We will make exquisite love, the kind of love reserved for the one day a year that is all about L-O-V-E.

Eh. We did all that last night. In fact, we do this all the time. We show our love and appreciation for each other every day. Sometimes we lose track of each other in the mire and muck of our own stuff, and then we reconnect over that candle, over that wine, over that meal. I am lucky to have him, and I am blessed in this love.

Tonight I will bring something in, or maybe I will cook--I haven't decided. We'll open a nice bottle of wine and we will watch something on TV. When we go to bed, I will have a little gift waiting for him on his pillow. It will be a gift that keeps on giving--the best kind. The love will be exquisite, or it might be wild and erotic, or we might choose to simply fall asleep in each others arms after a long talk about our day, or about nothing special. i will kiss him today the same way I do every day. I will tell him I love him in the same way I tell him every day. And he will do the same for me.

Happy Valentine's day to all of you. Be good to each other. Love each other. Love yourselves.
