It's a nice idea. I I think a love cut short by an untimely death is terrible in two ways, one because of the death and the other because there is no returning and no second chance. I'm so sorry that your great love ended that way.

Ah yes, you bring back long ago memories of V...Jon,<br />Ah yes, you bring back long ago memories of Valentine's Day from my grade school when we were forced to exchange Valentine's Day cards with our little pink smelling girl classmates. Of course I liked the cards more than the little girls, not that they weren't nice. And I remember those little heart shaped pure sugar Necco made candies too. These days I don't do Valentine Day but one thing I have found, there is true love. I looked for it my whole life and, as you know because I've been writing about it often enough (and even as I type this he is sending me text messages) I found it with my Canadian friend Pat. I never knew that love could be like this, so deep and abiding. Of course there is the sexual attraction (very, very strong) but more than that, it is the soul. Two alike. I truly met my soulmate. I know this is hard for some people to understand but I love Bill (the man I've been living with for the past fifty years and married for over a year now) and we will never part as long as one of us is alive. But this love I have for Pat transcends anything I've ever known before. All I can say that I hope you too will find our soul mate some day and I have a strong feeling you will. You're too nice of a guy and have too much to offer to not share all your goodness with other likeminded soul.<br />RonRonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161930319264523497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660581276521005822.post-7283594921926883942015-02-14T21:09:31.239-06:002015-02-14T21:09:31.239-06:00I'm happy not to be the only anti-Valentine...I'm happy not to be the only anti-Valentine's soul out here! Factor in, I'm not fond of diamonds, dislike (most) flowers and don't care a whit for chocolate ...ya, I'm a disgrace to my gender. (Usually, I smile and go along with sentiment before someone realizes and casts me out like a leper.) <br /><br />Nevertheless, one of my grade-school pals wrote about exchanging penny Valentines in one anothers' mailboxes (decorated white bakery bags) ... which made me smile. Remember those?<br /><br />For a myriad of reasons (well, only one - intensely personal) I'm keenly interested in your story of true love - and loss - Jon ... only if and when you're ready to share. <br />Mevely317https://www.blogger.com/profile/14786988262452989091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660581276521005822.post-11539936306530437412015-02-14T18:51:57.003-06:002015-02-14T18:51:57.003-06:00John bought me two chocolate candy bars with groce...John bought me two chocolate candy bars with groceries today.

I can only add my personal objection to Cupid. Winged or not I have never been comfortable around babies with bows and arrows. Babies are easily distracted and their aim is just awful.

Just kidding, I do have to get for myself and most times it's a box of candy, but I did get a red rose this year it only cost $10.00. I really don't think much about gift giving to each other when I want or need something I get then.
