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.
By;  Brenda Kay Ledford


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!

I enjoyed your recipe!!

The question always arises around this time of year. I've been happily married to one man for going on 47 years!

The truth to a good marriage...and a happy one, is to see the day as the day is...alongside your loved one. Taking time to heal the sad or share in the happy.

Great advice and so true. I hope all is well with you and your mother. I want to thank you for all the beautiful cards you've sent and for putting my name in the pot for the book, "Hometown Memories". I sent my story in and can't wait to see if they publish it. I just hope it's not to pricy. Happy Valentine's Day to you.

Hi Susie:
I'm glad you've written a story and submitted to Hometown Memories. I know it's a wonderful story and can hardly wait to read it in the anthology.
Best wishes,
Brenda
