The Beginning At Last

Valentine’s Friday

I made it myself! Sorry about all the glue on the table.

So, I won’t get too mushy here, I promise. 😄

Just wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a Happy Valentine’s Day!

Take a moment to tell those whom you care very deeply about just how much they truly mean to you. Not just today, but every day.

So often we get caught up in our own minds, our own anxieties, and our own hassles, that we forget that the people who truly love us do so unconditionally, even on our worst of days.

That, folks, is a gift we should always cherish. 💗

Have a great Valentine’s Day, kids!

Personally, I’ll be at work surrounded by a bunch of dudes whose wives and girlfriends are probably pissed off at them for working Valentine’s Day. 😄

In the spirit of the day:

I’ll let you guess which one broods more.

    Omg! 🤪 I was gonna post up a Batman and Catwoman image or 2! ❤️ lol
    I’m still positive you are a mind reader 😉
    Thank you Kevin 😍
    Happy Valentine’s Day – wish we could be together celebrating 😜 instead of you working!
    But soon enough 😘 😉
    Thank you! For all you do and for all the love you show me daily 🥰 it means everything to me, always
    (And yes, highly broody!) 🤪
    ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

    Under the moon
    Between the stars
    You showed me love
    And healed my scars
    Together we merge
    Of darkness and light
    As we become one
    Under the spell of night

    Ok, I guess I’m the mushy one, sorry 😘 I’ll stop now! ❤️ bahahah 😆

      Yes, the whole “life” thing has other plans for the moment, at least. But it won’t always 😊
      And my thanks to you for the same. It means the world to me as well 🤗

      The poem is lovely. Thank you so much 💗💗😊💗

    Valentine’s Day like most holidays was so much better as a kid at their elementary school class party. Suddenly, we all cared for each other, frogs and all.

      Things change indeed. That I cannot argue. That said, there are still moments of magic here and there for us to enjoy. We just need to learn to savor them 😊

    My bet’s on the glue—nothing broods harder than some

    Valentine’s Day… Thanks for your post and your artwork. Even though English is my only language, I find it difficult to interpret many words because one word has so many meanings. Like the word LOVE … I really struggle with the concept of it all..and surely I’m not the only one in the world to have this issue.
    Like one can love many different things and the true sense of love amongst two human beings can be beautiful but like you said it is coupled with so many things..I often question myself ..have I ever experienced true LOVE…between two adukt human beings.. I would say yes but not the everlasting love one reads about in books…
    I’ve known the love of a child..the love of food..the love of looking at something in nature..or doing some activity that gives off a good feeling..the love of an animal towards me- but sadly I think that my parents somewhat failed to show and encourage love to me from a very young age. So, instead, I’ve grown up being confused about LOVE but disciplined in mistrust and anger.
    Life it is what it is. I will keep searching for true everlasting love until the day I die.

      My friend, many, if not all of us, know those feelings at least to some degree. It i not a simple thing to just give your heart to another, particularly if you have known pain before.

      It takes faith and often, time. When it arrives, you will know it and not need to question it.
