I love, therefore I am.
Some of us are lucky in love. Some love with luck. Some of us love. period. Some of us have lasting love. Some are hard to love. Some reject love. Some are in between loves. Some are looking for love and have yet to find it. Sometimes love doesn't work. Love becomes broken.
I've found out recently of a family member who died alone and no one knew...for six years.
This is AP photo was one of the top emailed photos from 2007 with Yahoo! We love the idea of lifetime mating, our culture does.
When love doesn't last, or is not there, for whatever reasons, it is sad. So I'm putting up a tribute by James Taylor and Carly Simon, once happily married, long ago, before the marriage failed. Here's to my wish that all have devoted relationships - in friendship, in family and elsewhere.
Devoted to You...
I'm so much luckier in love than I ever thought I would be. For someone who never thought she would marry, it'll be 30 years this July. I have more family and friends to share love with too! How very sad to die alone.

Wow, Mother pie, What a lovely valentine tribute. Six years? Pathetic. Hard to reconcile that one in our minds. I love this video -- the looks in their eyes... very poignant.

Thanks for this lovely post. And for the song that I had forgotten and reminded me of happy times!
