The greatest gift you will receive on Valentine's Day

The greatest gift you will receive on Valentine's Day will not be the candy, flowers, dinner out or anything related to "buying" your thoughts. The greatest gift will be in the fact that the person giving you a gift of love will actually mean what the gift implies. And, the gift need not be fancy or expensive or the biggest or the best money can buy. I think the greatest gift for you to give or receive on Valentine's Day is a simple but meaningful "I LOVE YOU" along with a big hug.

Words spoken with meaning and a big hug given with a feeling of warmth and understanding will be remembered long after the candy and flowers are gone. And, since each day may be the last day we are on this earth, the spoken word and the big hug will always be remembered. We should actually think of each day as Valentine's Day!

Yes, you guys reading this, an "I Love You" and a hug, given with a gift, works better than just an "I LOVE YOU" and hug by itself! :) And, don't forget the card.

PS Ladies, I have never ever meet a man, regardless of how macho or grumpy or with a seemingly "I could care less" attidude, who didn't give a little smile (sometimes ever so small) when the one they love told them they loved them with a card or a hug, regardless of whether the words were spoken or not. Valentine's Day is not just for the ladies.

Built by a labor of love World's Largest kids with special needs park

The Gordon Hartman Family Foundation is building the largest park in the world for children and adults with special needs.You can go to www.soarsa.org and read about this project that is inspired by a young lady named MORGAN Hartman. Morgan has overcome many adversities in life and gone beyond many expectations due to her positive attitude and perseverance. Her boundless love and the ability to "SOAR" above her challenges were the true inspiration for this unique and amazing park.

This park will be available FREE of charge to any special needs person in the world wishing to enjoy this wonderland of happiness. This is Morgan's Wonderland and I encourage everyone reading this short description of park to go to the web site and read about the features and the thoughts behind it and the inspiration. Coming this Fall 2009 it will be one of the wonders of the world for those with special needs.
