Happy Valentines Day! To many people around the world, today is the ultimate day. A celebration of Love, Romance & Affection! Someone said “All you need is Love”…
Chocolate sales go through the roof today! Restaurants will have a great turnout all over as well with couples going out for dinner in celebration of their Love and affection for one another.
Some of my friends are naysayers… They say it’s nothing but commercialism. Well, they may be right, but, what’s the alternative? Not celebrating your love and affection for each other today? As for me, we’ve got reservations at 7 😊
This ones for my Valentine 😊 I Love you ❤️ Jo!
Happy Valentines Day to everyone!
PS: Love is celebrated all over the world today, but Valentines Day is not a public holiday anywhere in the world 🌎 Hmmm… 🤔

I ❤️ Koi! And of course I ❤️ Koi Ponds too 😊
Lately I’ve been studying Kanji & symbolism in Japan. Last Wednesday I wrote about how the Kanji for Koi & Love are 1 in the same… 😊 I LOVE that! Koi also symbolize several other things in Japanese culture that are worthy of note!
Swimming koi represent advancement and determination. Fish symbolize wealth & surplus!
In the Koi Pond, the synergy of the Koi & the Pond & the Waterfalls come together & Love & Friendship are manifested.
This is the Kanji for Koi as well as the Kanji for Love.
This Kanji means Friendship.
Tomorrow is Valentines Day, a day made for Love & Friendship! We could start a new tradition – Take that special someone to the Koi Pond on Valentines Day 😊 I better not get too carried away, but I thought it was a great Segway between the two…
I really enjoy learning more about the Japanese culture! And I always Love learning more about Koi & Koi Ponds 😊 I have forged many friendships around Koi Ponds! So cool! I truly ❤️ My Job!
Have a great day & enjoy your Koi!
PS: Happy Valentines Day Eve…
Happy Pondering 🤔

This weekend has been a nice break with my family celibrating my wife’s birthday. It has rained all weekend and warmed up nicely. We sat out on the porch and listened to the sounds of the Peepers – harbingers of Spring!
This week is also Valentines Day! Always on the week of her birthday 😊 So again, it’s a special time. I hope everyone will enjoy the chance to spend time with the one you love & enjoy the coming of Spring. I can literally feel it.
These daffodils were planted by my grandma and always bring happy thoughts to me. Spring is almost here! Happy Valentines Day!
“While it is February one can taste the full joys of anticipation. Spring stands at the gate with her finger on the latch.”

Happy Valentines Day!
