One guy's attempt to put things in perspective. To reflect on the good and the bad, the sad and the mad. And hopefully, to laugh at it all.

A Father's Love

A friend of mine found this on fatherslove.com. For anyone who feels lonely today......

Thank you Lamia Helou!

Valentine's Day... many of us will be spending it with a significant other, a group of friends, family, people we love. But how often do we stop to think about the most important love story ever written on a day dedicated to love? I don't remember the last Valentine's Day I spent dwelling in the most perfect love... God's love... the love of Jesus Christ. I pray that this Valentine's Day is full of embracing the only lasting and unconditional love! Here is a letter from God... a perfect love letter for a holiday dedicated to Love. God loves you and is totally crazy about you! I love you too :) Happy Valentine's Day!
