Valentine's Day 2008

For Jeannie

Forever Love

You are my forever love.
I shared with you

Adventures and joys,
Times good and bad.

Happiness and tears we
Treasured in our years.
I loved you just the
Way you were.

You are gone but
The love is forever.


Some thoughts on unconditional love.

If there is any lesson for me to learn from my life so far, it is that love must not abate. It must not hinge on reciprocity. If you have truly loved, love on, no matter what. Admit that the harsh act or word of a loved one is undesired – but love on. Otherwise you will build up for yourself great suffering.

That passage was sent to me by my mother a few years ago.
Happy Valentine's Day to everyone.
