Corn syrup renderings sweet and sticky, Red paper hearts beating on store lined shelves. Passion and intent should not be resigned to drug store holidays. It is a gift to be celebrated but with the investment of hearts rather than the coin or the bill. Sentiments that have taken on the market’s time watch, the only day when one can show their passion’s, in terms of paper hearts and baby’s breath. Cynicism is not the watch word, truth in celebrations of each day blessed to be with one you love. I have never given permission for my heart to be exploited or my love to be bandied on sheet metal racks. My love for my love is much more precious than three and a quarter with envelope attached. Peace of mind can only be achieved when we find peace with self |

This is very nice. Too bad most will only show their love one day a year and think they have to put a price tag on it. That is sad. Good job! |
