I want to start this off by saying that I love Valentines Day! Now, having said that, I am dreading the 14th this year . This past summer my relationship of 15 years, 12 of that married, ended. It has been many, many years since I have been in the position of wishing that I had a valentine but I do find myself there now. I know that it is best to have time to heal and gain pespective before moving on but I do find myself longing for it at this time.
One thing that I would like to pass on to you all is, try not take the people you love for granted. I know that it is inevitable in all relationships but be aware that it will happen and be proactive when you see/feel signs of it. It is my feeling that it is the #1 cause of deterioration in relationships, it is a disease that will spread to all parts of your life together. It is easier said than done, I know... but make the effort... when I get the chance again, so will I.

Whether you are alone or with a special someone this Valentines, I hope you all have a great day. I have grown pretty fond of all my friends and acquaintances here at SG.
