Valentine’s Day is a holiday designed to celebrate romantic love but that seems so exclusive to me.
This year I’m celebrating just love, all love, and the kind of love we need more of in our lives and in our world.
Here are 11 of my favorite quotes to express my desire for the kind of love we all deserve.
