Today is Valentine's Day--a day of love.
Most people either really love today or they really hate it.
Those who hate it tend to hate it because they are plagued by the absence of love, or companionship.
We decided to keep it very low key this year, because we are plagued by the absence of someone we love--but I really don't hate today.
I appreciate love more now than ever, after experience such a tremendous loss.
Even though Elijah is not physically here, his love lives on and thrives like no other love I have ever felt before.
Because of him, I love more openly and more deeply than I have ever loved in my life. I feel so much empathy and compassion in places that I may have only cared a little before. I love with my heart wide open and hope for the day that others do the same.
There is a lot of good in today...
Love yourself. Love your family. Love your friends. Love your children. Love your significant other. Love every person you meet, and thank God for every moment you breathe. Just keep loving the crap out of everything--because love is the only thing capable of saving all of us right now.
I wish you all a happy (or at least a content) Valentine's Day. Find some good in today--you are loved.
I wish I was a better poet,
I'd write you some beautiful Valentine's poem.
But today I am mostly just broken,
Wishing you were home.
I love you so much.
I miss you even more.
I cried today thinking about you
I wish that you were here.
I read your little story to you.
Did you hear it?
I wish I could move mountains,
but I carry pebbles instead.
One day the will pile so high
that I can climb them to you and kiss your little head.
I love and miss you my boogie.
Happy First Valentine's Day in Heaven.
