Those of you who have read ONE GOOD DEED, the book, will remember the tradition I started (a tradition with myself) of sending Valentine’s Day cards to friends and relatives who are old, alone, heartbroken or just plain need a virtual hug. I almost blew it this year, but managed to get to the post office with a dozen or so at 8 am Tuesday morning, so hopefully the love will arrive today.
To those of you who have not bowed to what many consider a “Hallmark holiday,” how about this: call one person today who needs a little love. Doesn’t matter who it is. For all its commercialism, there’s something great about a day that’s devoted to love.
Happy Valentine’s Day.
I was feeling kind of meh about Valentine’s Day this year, so commercial, blah blah blah, but you put it back into perspective. Now I’m glad I sent a few cards out.
I know what you mean. Even emails I’ve sent today with a little e-love have been received so cheerily. Seems like all found them unexpected.
Happy Valentine’s Day to you, Diane!
Hugs to you Erin! Teddy the dog and I just enjoyed a great walk along the sunny shores of Buzzard’s Bay-quiet except for the sounds of chainsaws!
Same to you, Faith! Off to San Francisco tomorrow to speak about ONE GOOD DEED at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church — it’ll be fun and a pleasant change in the weather, that’s for sure!
We’re expecting gorgeous weather here today and Saturday so you’ve chosen an awesome time to come see us!
