You Make Me Smile

The list goes on and on

We have spent so much time together

This is where happiness begins

We continue to grow as a couple

Sharing so many good times and making new memories

What else can this man say

I love you more every day

We have had our sad times and difficulties

They slowly get ironed out

We know as long as we work together

There is nothing we can not do

There are so many cards on the shelf

That express in so many words

What lovers think

They are all beautiful and so pretty

I am here at your side

So glad you are my greatest friend and my wife

Today is Valentine's Day

We will probably stay low key

Sleep late

Maybe breakfast in bed

Take an afternoon drive

Go out to eat

Who knows maybe at Wendy's

I am so proud

I can't wait to spend the rest of my life

Sharing all the things we both enjoy

Filled with love and surprises

You finished the liscence plate puzzle without me?

How could you?

Really I am so glad you did

I was losing my mind

My eyes couldn't look at one more number

Love has been felt in so many ways

Sometimes the simplest covers them all

I love you

I am giving you a fifteen minute head start

When I catch you

Then the hearts will fly

So high up above our heads

I hope we don't interfere with the planes in the sky

Tim Truzy Wow you really know how to make a guy feel good. What a nice compliment. Everything I said is true and as you said without our wife's support we couldn't do what we do every day. It takes me a long time to respond not because I don't want to it is just I want to go up and beyond to let you know how important your comments mean to me. They are like little energy bars that keep me fueled up and ready to go. There are many highs in lows in any given day. What brings it on is sometimes something totally unexpected and unpredictable. When I was reading your comments I was given a pat on the back and a push in the right direction. At the same time work took a strange turn of events. Words were said between a coworker and I and they took a whole new meaning. Due to his stubbornness and my bad timing, things escalated really fast to an unfortunate situation. Things over time might work themselves out. There is a good chance things will get worse before they get better. I have been replaying the same course of events over in my head to see all the possible outcomes. I am careful not to do anything foolish I tried to listen to his point and his reasoning. He is in no state of mind to listen to me and I found the best thing I could do is back off at this point in time. It is amazing how a few words can have a whole different meaning from one person to another. I will tell you more if you are interested. It is always good to see any situation with a fresh set of eyes. So rereading your comment has put me in a very good place when otherwise I would be feeling so much different. Thank you for your support and help. May your week go smooth and may the fun continue.

Gypsy Rose Lee Love is always changing. We build on the love that we have known and enjoyed. Sids love will remind you of all the beautiful times in the past and can also give you new times to look forward to in the future. Love can be found in so many places. It is silly to think we run out of love when things change. It might be different than love in the past. Our parents love and grandparents love still stays with us long after their gone. The love we receive from writing, flowers, a beautiful day and other activities we can still enjoy even those each thing or time comes to a temporary end. They leave room for the next time we recreate a new time similar or different than the old one. Thank you for reading and sharing. Have a special and incredible morning.

Glad to hear the love was shining on Valentine's. I had my memories and I just worked on my PC. My remaining love Sid came in and I picked him up to hug him and as if knowing this was a different kind of day he tolerated it as much as he could. He does send his sincerest meows to Charlotte.

Hi, Dream On,

It's o.k. You will never "interfere with the planes" in the sky because you and your wife are on another plane anyway, and those other planes will be landing, just watching you soar.

Beautiful. Romantic. Dead on with descriptions of love and tenderness.

We are quite fortunate to have spouses that are supportive of our endeavors as we are theirs.

Wonderful work.

To a creative soul,

Have a fabulous day.

Much respect and admiration,

Tim

Bill Holland We are truly blessed. I have watched so many people with so many talents they are really incredible in what they do. Something so special they make every cut and stand out from the rest. You can call them superstars, rock stars, writers, politicians, fireman, policeman, soldiers, architects and tradesmen in every profession. Each profession goes for all the woman too. You know they are skilled and gifted like nothing you have ever seen. I am also recognizing all the parents and grandparents that are exceptional in what they do. Then there are those people still searching for their niche. That's where I fall in. Maybe I found it and didn't see it. I was maybe meant to be the best darn husband. I got a late start in life since we got married when I was 37 years old. Unable to have children of our own. We spend more time together. To all the husbands and wife's out there who haven't found their place. Maybe you were meant to be just that too. A really loving person to one other person and do something no one has ever done. Be happy not just for one day but for your entire life. Each day I keep striving to be a better person. I ask the same from my wife. As long as you try your best I will be happy forever. I know forever is an awfully long time. Well, when 17 years go by with a blink of an eye. I think I'm on the right track. I look ahead of many more years of practice and finding and keeping love in all the right places. I tried to make it short and sweet. Thank you to my wife who gives me the time to write. Thank you, Bill, for your honesty and respect. I hope your Valentine's Day was just as beautiful as every other day.

I think we are both pretty lucky, my friend.

Happy Valentine's Day!
