Valentine's Day

Instead of a Hallmark greeting, wouldn’t our proclamations of love be more authentic if we were directed by the classic words of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, “How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.”? That sounds romantic until I think about the reality of doing this and my sense of humor prevails when I remember some of our days past. So, my marriage is probably on safer ground if I don’t go in that direction and just say, “I love you, Ron.”
