Being in love

 
 True love means springtime in any weather
Acrylic on canvas
8 x 8 inches

I think I have always been in love with life.
I have always found the good parts of life
pure joy, and recognize that I am supremely
lucky to feel that way.

Today I enjoyed coffee with some of my friends
in the neighbourhood in the morning, and
we laughed hysterically about relationships --
how frustrating they are, and how delightful.
Steven and I are supremely blessed to  have loved
one another for a long, happy time.

Here is my Valentine's card painting for you.
The  front of the card reads Happy Valentine's Day,
and inside it says From Your Secret Admirer.

That of course is a joke because my name is on
the back of the card with the title, and anyone
receiving it knows that I am the admirer.  In
your case it isn't a secret.  I value your friendship
and your wonderful uplifting work.  So have
a Happy Valentine's Day.

Have a love-is-always-everywhere day.
