Valentine’s Schmalentines!
Valentine’s Schmalentines! Do we need a special day, or just one day to celebrate how valuable love is? Those that have it, know how valuable it is and should celebrate it everyday. Those that don’t have it yet, still know how wonderful and valuable it is, making the search matter so much. At one time or another, everyone was a searcher, so once found cherish it. After all, “Love makes the world go ’round” from the musical “Carnival”. It does everyday.

Judy Garland said that about “Love”? She was married at least 4 times, but only once to another imperfect man who adored her more than all the rest combined: Sid Luft..
You see she “couldn’t live without love” and eventually she might have gotten it right, perhaps by taking Katherine Hepburn’s advice
