Valentine's Day
LONG LASTING LOVE CANDY
1 package of strong faith
2 cups patience
1/4 cup gratitude
3/4 cup respect
2/3 responsibility
1 can kindness
2 teaspoons compromise
8 gallons of love
You may freeze the Long Lasting Love Candy for a century, pull it out as needed.

A recent research shows that saying thank you when your mate does something nice such as taking out the trash, creates feelings of happiness that can make a relationship go the distance.
Dan Hollifield and wife, Patricia, share advise for a happy marriage:
"Compromise," said Dan. "There's never been a marriage where you agree all the time."
"You must be best friends," said Patricia.
I wish all my blogger friends a very Happy Valentine's Day!
