Didn’t you think Misty’s post was fabulous? I just loved it, and it’s going to be a hard act to follow, but I’ll give it shot.
We don’t normally celebrate Valentine’s Day at our house. For the past several years we’ve been stuck on very difficult job sites where after a twelve hour day, we’ve looked at each other, wished each other a happy day and then went to get Chinese take-out, headed back to the hotel and gone to sleep. Isn’t that romantic? And there you have it. The secret to a happy relationship. Take-out food and a good hotel.
But on a serious note, we both agree Valentine’s Day is simply a retail venture. Love is constant and something you live every day. Especially for your mate. That person deserves your best because they’ve seen you at your worst, and they still love you and stand by you.
Now that’s romance!
And how right you are…someone to stand by you when you’re at your worst is what it’s all about. I think Marilyn Monroe once said, If you can’t love me at my worst, you don’t deserve me at my best! 🙂
That was Marilyn, Debora! I love that quote.
What a great post, Sutton. It is so true that romance should be a constant
