Remember

When you find yourself on your own,
Remember that you are not alone,
And when you’re feeling down and blue,
Remember that I’ll always love you.

When I am not here with you,
Remember that our love is pure and true,
I think about you every night and day,
When I’m with you, I want to stay.

In Love

I can’t explain why I feel this way,
Everytime you would come my way
I always tremble, feeling nervous,
It’s like I wanna fall down unconcious.
I don’t know what so special about you
That made me fall in love with you.
Maybe that cute face of yours,
Your smiles and ways, yes of course
Everytime you’re by my side
I’d like to stretch my hands open wide
And embrace you tight endlessly
But I can’t, you might turn away from me.

Power Of Love

Love can change everything you have known
Everything you believe with this feeling shown
A heart beating faster can make two people fly
Make you walk on water in the twinkle of an eye.

It takes control of the heart, mind, body and soul
They fit that place deep inside to make you whole
The elements together fire, earth, water and air
Are nothing without love, in it they all share.

Without the one you love there is nothing it seems
Together the strength can make hopes and dreams
A feeling so breathtakingly gentle lifts you up above
This natural passion comes with the power of love.

The Legend of St. Valentine

The history of Valentine's Day--and the story of its patron saint--is shrouded in mystery. We do know that February has long been celebrated as a month of romance, and that St. Valentine's Day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition. But who was Saint Valentine, and how did he become associated with this ancient rite?

The Catholic Church recognizes at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred. One legend contends that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.

Other stories suggest that Valentine may have been killed for attempting to help Christians escape harsh Roman prisons, where they were often beaten and tortured. According to one legend, an imprisoned Valentine actually sent the first "valentine" greeting himself after he fell in love with a young girl--possibly his jailor's daughter--who visited him during his confinement. Before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter signed "From your Valentine," an expression that is still in use today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories all emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic and--most importantly--romantic figure. By the Middle Ages, perhaps thanks to this reputation, Valentine would become one of the most popular saints in England and France.

Origins of Valentine's Day: A Pagan Festival in February

While some believe that Valentine's Day is celebrated in the middle of February to commemorate the anniversary of Valentine's death or burial--which probably occurred around A.D. 270--others claim that the Christian church may have decided to place St. Valentine's feast day in the middle of February in an effort to "Christianize" the pagan celebration of Lupercalia. Celebrated at the ides of February, or February 15, Lupercalia was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.

To begin the festival, members of the Luperci, an order of Roman priests, would gather at a sacred cave where the infants Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome, were believed to have been cared for by a she-wolf or lupa. The priests would sacrifice a goat, for fertility, and a dog, for purification. They would then strip the goat's hide into strips, dip them into the sacrificial blood and take to the streets, gently slapping both women and crop fields with the goat hide. Far from being fearful, Roman women welcomed the touch of the hides because it was believed to make them more fertile in the coming year. Later in the day, according to legend, all the young women in the city would place their names in a big urn. The city's bachelors would each choose a name and become paired for the year with his chosen woman. These matches often ended in marriage.

Valentine's Day: A Day of Romance

Lupercalia survived the initial rise of Christianity and but was outlawed—as it was deemed “un-Christian”--at the end of the 5th century, when Pope Gelasius declared February 14 St. Valentine's Day. It was not until much later, however, that the day became definitively associated with love. During the Middle Ages, it was commonly believed in France and England that February 14 was the beginning of birds' mating season, which added to the idea that the middle of Valentine's Day should be a day for romance.

Valentine greetings were popular as far back as the Middle Ages, though written Valentine's didn't begin to appear until after 1400. The oldest known valentine still in existence today was a poem written in 1415 by Charles, Duke of Orleans, to his wife while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London following his capture at the Battle of Agincourt. (The greeting is now part of the manuscript collection of the British Library in London, England.) Several years later, it is believed that King Henry V hired a writer named John Lydgate to compose a valentine note to Catherine of Valois.

Typical Valentine's Day Greetings

In addition to the United States, Valentine's Day is celebrated in Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, France and Australia. In Great Britain, Valentine's Day began to be popularly celebrated around the 17th century. By the middle of the 18th, it was common for friends and lovers of all social classes to exchange small tokens of affection or handwritten notes, and by 1900 printed cards began to replace written letters due to improvements in printing technology. Ready-made cards were an easy way for people to express their emotions in a time when direct expression of one's feelings was discouraged. Cheaper postage rates also contributed to an increase in the popularity of sending Valentine's Day greetings.

Americans probably began exchanging hand-made valentines in the early 1700s. In the 1840s, Esther A. Howland began selling the first mass-produced valentines in America. Howland, known as the “Mother of the Valentine,” made elaborate creations with real lace, ribbons and colorful pictures known as "scrap." Today, according to the Greeting Card Association, an estimated 1 billion Valentine’s Day cards are sent each year, making Valentine's Day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year. (An estimated 2.6 billion cards are sent for Christmas.) Women purchase approximately 85 percent of all valentines.

Have You Ever

by Red

Have you ever felt,

the cold and lifeless hand of an infant,

gazed into their unblinking eyes,

and observed the face of death,

when masked in bittersweet innocence?

Have you ever touched your dreams,

and felt the simplistic joy,

of feeling them become reality,

only to abandon them,

for reasons you cannot explain?

Have you ever watched your family,

who once shared the greatest of loves,

suffer an unforgettable and unforgivable tragedy,

that will slowly, painfully, and inevitably,

tear them all apart?

Do you know, firsthand,

the evil that resides deep within the heart of every man,

every woman, and every child?

Have you seen its face as it randomly seeks,

a soul to torment and destroy?

Do you know the darker side of life,

the one that awakens you,

in the still of the night,

crying to the unknowable God's,

Save me from myself. '?

Does your heart constantly question,

whether humanity is obtainable,

in a world corrupted with suffering,

and where war,

is the favoured solution for peace?

If you really want to know me,

and understand the forces that compel me to move on,

then take these questions,

and take this pain,

for this who I am.

I Love You Deeply

I love you so deeply,
I love you so much,
I love the sound of your voice
And the way we touch.
I love your warm smile
And your kind, thoughtful way,
The joy that you bring
To my life each day.

I love you today
As I have from the start,
And I’ll love you forever
With all my heart.

All Because of You

Author: Kate Reneigh Woodruff

I awake each day with a smile
And greet it with a laugh;
The world is a treasure to me
Because of you.

Every time I think of something sad,
I replace the thought - with you!
My mind is instantly changed
And my heart is filled with gladness.

Every breath I take is meant for you,
I live this life surrounded in joy
And I bathe in the promise of your love,
My soul belongs to you.

Each time I see something beautiful
Beyond The Rack
I want to take it and bring it to you;
My life has so much meaning now
All because of you.

Because Of You

Because of you
my world is now whole,
Because of you
love lives in my soul.
Because of you
I have laughter in my eyes,
Because of you
I am no longer afraid of good-byes.
You are my pillar
my stone of strength,
With me through all seasons
and great times of length.
My love for you is pure
boundless through space and time,
it grows stronger everyday
knowing that you’ll always be mine.

Balance of life

If your always worried about the past,

when will you ever have time to plan for the future?

But if your always planning for the future,

when will you ever be able to live in the moment?

Until Then

A tear drips from my face.

I want you to stay.

I ask myself, ‘why’,

You must live so far away.

Then I remember,

That you wonder too,

Why I must live,

So far away from you.

If only we could be together,

And never part,

Then I would truly be happy,

deep down in my heart.

I know it will be, someday.

But until then,

I must let my feelings for you flow,

From my heart to my pen.

Love Sonnet

Can you see how I adore you?

Bliss brings lovelight to my eyes

You speak ~ I hear a symphony

Flowers dance, the bluebird flies.

When first we met, I just knew

No other soulmate could there be

To settle deep within my heart

And cherish its key eternally.

Playing our parts for all to see …

We are “Sylvia and Dante Rossetti”

Whene’er we talk, where’er we walk

Moon and stars sprinkle confetti.

Bliss brings lovelight, never gloom

Shall we dance where roses bloom?

Your Arms Around Me

Put your arms around me

Hold me just like this

Cover me with love

So much I don’t exist

Heal me far from pain

Start long before you end

Give me reasons to believe

We should let this love ascend

Free me from my worries

Obliterate my doubt

Leave the past behind

And seek the future out.

Go beyond your limit

(We’ll pass the others by)

And make love part of history

That no one can defy.

So, put your arms around me

Let our hearts demure

Hold me for as long as you can

And let this love endure.

Cry

“Sometimes when I'm alone

I Cry,

Cause I am on my own.

The tears I cry are bitter and warm.

They flow with life but take no form

I Cry because my heart is torn.

I find it difficult to carry on.

If I had an ear to confide in,

I would cry among my treasured friend,

but who do you know that stops that long,

to help another carry on.

The world moves fast and it would rather pass by.

Then to stop and see what makes one cry,

so painful and sad.

And sometimes...

I Cry and no one cares about why.”

Tupac Shakur

Not perfect

“He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect.

But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if

he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the

most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every

moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break.

Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give.

Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and

miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had.

Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s

always one guy that is perfect for you.” Bob Marley."^ ^;...

Cause of DEATH

"Sex After a Heart Attack: Women Want Information
By By Rachael Rettner, Senior Writer | LiveScience.com – Thu, Jul 25, 2013

Many women who've had heart attacks want more information about how to safely resume sex afterward, a new study suggests.
Researchers conducted detailed interviews with female heart attack patients and found that many held fears about engaging in sex after a heart attack, and wondered whether their hearts could handle the exertion.
Some said their partners were concerned that sex would trigger another heart attack. "I had to convince my husband that I wasn’t going to die in bed," one woman was quoted as saying.
Despite these fears, most women said they started having sex again about four weeks after their heart attack. Often, women said they engaged in sex because they wanted to return to a "normal" life.
"You don’t always want to be the lady that had the heart attack," one woman in the study said.
However, most women said their doctor did not give them any advice about resuming sex after their heart attack. Those who did speak with their doctors reported that they initiated the conversation themselves, and that the doctor did not provide a very satisfactory answer.
"Cardiologists, in the very immediate, are trying to save lives," said study researcher Emily Abramsohn, a public health researcher at the University of Chicago. "What they're concerned about is patients' hearts," Abramsohn said. But the study shows "women want to be treated as a whole person."
Cardiologists can ease concerns by speaking openly with patients about sex after a heart attack, Abramsohn said. Women who have these concerns should know that they are not alone in feeling this way, and "it's OK to ask," for more information from your doctor, Abramsohn said.
Although nearly three-quarters of men, and close to half of women reported being sexually active before their heart attack, only about 47 percent of men and 35 percent of women say that they received counseling about when they could resume sex, according to prior research.
Some doctors may not think to discuss sex with older patients — the average age of women in the study was 60 — but studies show that older men and women value their sexual life, Abramsohn said.
The American Heart Association says that sex is probably safe for patients after a heart attack as long as they are in stable condition, and have no complications. Those who are unstable or who have severe symptoms should be treated and stabilized before having sex. Heart attacks rarely occur during sex because sexual activity is usually relatively short in duration, AHA says.
Patients who receive nitrate therapy for chest pain due to coronary artery disease should not use erectile dysfunction drugs, the AHA says.
The study was small, and it's possible that those who agreed to take part had views that were not reflective of the majority of women (for instance, they were especially concerned about sex after their heart attack)."^ ^;...
