Valentine

I was working in my hometown yesterday so I crashed at my parent's house. With Valentine's Day around the corner, I couldn't help but think of love. The first thing that came to mind was seeing through the years how much my parents love each other. Sure, they get mad at each other every now and again, but for the most part, they not only are kind and respectful to each other--they're loving and affectionate. They're a great example of what "true love" is all about. My mom and dad not only love each other more than they love themselves but they love my sister, grandparents, and I in the same selfless manner.

This tells me that I've got a lot of growing up to do. In life it's not always about putting yourself first. Someday I'll get there. Happy Valentine's Day (two days early)!
