Valentine's Day Has Come and Gone

It may be a bit melancholy or "anti-romantic" but some Valentine's Day love fails to outlive the shelf life of the flowers that were purchased to represent it.

Lasting love, and I mean real to the core 25th anniversary marriage or parent-child love, is far more enduring.

Indeed it is the love of family that passes through all eternity because, for most, it is the purest example of God's love on earth. That is why Valentine's Day is as good a time as ever to contemplate those eternal aspects of our existence. What will outlive our bodies, what was this blink of an eye all about?

These are the issues of LifeStory reflection. They energize our very existence.
