love story


On this, the second day of February, I want to share with you a love story.  This is the right month to do this.

There is no definitive history of Valentine's Day. I tried to get to the bottom of it. By that, I mean, I spent a few minutes online googling it. But I think it is in February because it must have felt like a cold, barren, nothing month to the people who decided on the date.  They knew they couldn't change the weather so they decided to warm it up with love.  That's my theory anyway.

Now. To the love story. It's a true one.

It might make you cry.  Don't fight the tears. It means your heart is healthy.

Don't you just love that Alan?
