As many people who know me will attest, I am a "hopeless romantic". Valentines Day is just 24 hours away and I'd like to offer up a gift to my family, friends, and followers in the way of words and music. To a lot of people, one of the most famous group of words describing love is often repeated to show one's love for others. But how many of you actually know it's origin? Below is a quote:
"Love is patient; love is kind and envies no one. Love is never boastful, nor conceited, nor rude; never selfish, not quick to take offense. Love keeps no score of wrongs; does not gloat over other men's sins, but delights in the truth. There is nothing love cannot face; there is no limit to its faith, its hope, and its endurance.....In a word, there are three things that last forever; faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of them all is love." Source: The Holy Bible, 1 Corinthians 13, verses 4-13.
I've chosen three songs I hope you will enjoy listening to. The first one is by Sir Paul McCartney, My Valentine. You'll recognize the lead guitarist. It's Joe Walsh. A beautiful song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wxdtq1NpGI
The second song is an oldie-but-goodie and one of my favorites. It's All In the Game, sung by Tommy Edwards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gtizr2G_7Bk
The last song I've posted on this blog before. It's a song my parents purchased on a 78 rpm record and it's sung by Britain's famous lady, who sang encouraging words for the troops during WWII. That would be Dame Vera Lynn, and the song is If You Love Me, Really Love Me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZYiSVx8yWk&list=RDnZYiSVx8yWk
I hope you enjoy listening to these great songs. Happy Valentines Day!
