I agree wholeheartedly. Yesterday, on vale...Craig,<br />I agree wholeheartedly. Yesterday, on valentine's day our minister came over to serve communion with Mom and Dad since they are shut in. It was a wonderful time of sharing and a very meaningful sharing of love, respect, and appreciation. I did learn one thing about valentines day though. St. Valentine was a real person in the 13th century, according to Pastor Morris. During that time women who were not wealthy could not get married without a dowry. It meant a life of servitude, and not ever having a husband unless someone could provide a dowry for this poor women. St. Valentine would provide such dowries as he could so they could marry. <br /><br />I thought that this was quite interesting. I do not have the direct reference, but you could probably get it from Pastor Terry Morse, First Presbyterian Church, Luverne, CA 56156.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I agree that life would be wonderful if everyday was filled with love and appreciation for everyone that is close to us and we love.
