Valentine

This is Brian's lover, Alina. I've hacked into his blog, on this Valentines Day, to give him a virtual card. (Because I love you, and love to embarrass you.)












TUNED IN

I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.
George Washington Carver (1864 - 1943)

If you truly love Nature, you will find beauty everywhere.
Vincent van Gogh (1853 - 1890)

SUCCESSFUL

Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.
Herman Cain

A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people.
Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882 - 1945)

PATIENT

If you would know strength and patience, welcome the company of trees.
Hal Borland (1900 - 1978)

STRONG

The first prerequisite of an advanced being is a sense of humor.
Richard Bach (1936 - )

HUMOROUS

BRIGHT

Life is no brief candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got a hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)

Between whom there is hearty truth, there is love; and in proportion to our truthfulness and confidence in one another, our lives are divine and miraculous, and answer to our ideal. . . . Friends do not live in harmony merely, as some say, but in melody.

What is the singing of birds, or any natural sound, compared with the voice of one we love?
Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)
