I want her legs! That song makes me cry every time I hear it. Thanks for a reminder that I am important. It made my day.

Amen. Valentine's Day still reminds me of my high school days when the popular girls would get carnations to pin on their blouses.

"If the person doesn't show you in so many ways on a daily basis already, why should a day advertised to be the most romantic day of the year, make it different?""Honor and respect yourself."You're so right. I needed to see that. Thank you.

Here, here. There were many years I hated Valentine's day, both when I was alone and when I wasn't, but fretted about whether the Significant Other was treating me "right." Now I get my boys a big hunk of chocolate, because I want to, and don't fret it.But it was fun doing a book love post at the blog today! So I guess I did just what you say, I made the day mine!

I'm not a huge Valentine Day fan, but I'm not against it either. Now that I'm a grown-up, I like watching my kids enjoy getting their class Valentines and their class party. This year I made my husband promise that we'd keep it very low key - especially given that I'm working until 9:00 tonight.A friend sent along a video that I posted today (must be the day for it) that is very sweet about lots

Valentine's Day always reminds me of the fifties and big old books of valentines to cut or punch out and give to classmates. Somehow it never meant too much for actual sweethearts when I got old enough to have one!Back to the present--you always create powerfully thoughtful prompts to keep us all pluggin' away. Thank you.On a more superficial note, I am not saying I need CA's thighs, mind you,

You're so right.That's a really great song.I don't think we need a Valentine's Day. And I'm not being bitter or anything by saying that (I've got plenty of lurv in my life)! I just don't think you should need a day that dictates telling/showing someone you love them. Like you said.

Wow - I love this holiday :) I get to wear pink and red and there's always so much candy. It's like Halloween but the colors are different.Does this mean I shouldn't send you the Valentine e-greeting?:)I love the advice to do something special for yourself today!

I put V. Day in the same catagory as Halloween. It's all about the candy and the kid's class parties. I could do with out the whole thing but I like seeing them have fun. I did give myself permission to break my Lenten vow and eat chocolate. I felt sick afterwards so I am even more glad I gave up chocolate for Lent.

I think Valentine's Day should be a designated "Catch up on your correspondence" day, since St. Valentine delivered letters. I know I certainly need to write to people with whom I've lost touch. In Valentine's Days past, I'd get myself little presents. You know, just to show I cared.;)xoxo
