An Ode to Saint Valentine

Historically speaking, there probably never was a saint by that name or there may have been several. How appropriate that we celebrate this day proclaiming love, that amorphous and often ephemeral concept, for our dearly beloved. Ask anyone to define love and they'll begin to stutter and stammer, finally proclaiming, "you'll know it when you feel it."

So what is love? I'm not sure there is one definitive answer, but for me, the true indicator is when you simply cannot imagine being separated from that person. This Valentine's Day will be the first in a long while that I can openly celebrate such love.
