Valentine Prayer
On this day set aside to celebrate my love, I fall short.
For true love is not solely for my love,
or for my other loves,
but for all mankind.
So I pray for His perfect love
to someday complete my inadequate heart.
Please replace my pride with humble grace.
Please fill my soul with unconditional warmth and acceptance.
Please bless me with the desire and ability to embrace all without judgment or reservation.
For I have been given more than enough to share, and really, it is all about love.

So beautiful. I love your posts; they always make me think/laugh/feel. Maybe we all be granted perfect love.
Beautiful, Martha. Seriously, I checked your blog a few times earlier today, wondering what treasure of Valentine's Day sentiment I would find. I could not have predicted half so lovely. I hope your day was filled with love.
when you have kids valentines day is so different, so much more meaningful. i never thought about spreading that love, though...good work!
will you be my miyagi-san? you are so grounded and insightful. sometimes i need a break from my own type A.
It is all about love--I couldn't agree more. And what a beautiful prayer and tribute to love this is. My heart longs for the same. Thank you.
That was beautiful and a great reminder.
All you need is love. Or so they say! :-)
I think that was beautiful. What enormous blessings we all have, huh? With the state of the world, we are still living charmed lives.
Love, Love, love. Beautiful. Thanks
Thank you. This was exquisite.
Very nice Martha. I love the pictures, as usual and the words are make it perfect.
And yes, I have returned from the non-blogging world.
thanks for the reminder...you always know how to say just the perfect thing! hope you are feeling good!
That was beautiful and perfect. As for the movie, Spiderwick...I think it may be a little too intense for a 4 year old. My own opinion. I have been wrong before.
martha, you amaze me. you are such a beautiful writer and take such amazing pictures. it is so much fun because you remind me of a female nate.
