Valentine's Day thoughts...

It's Valentine's Day 2026. This image was taken in February 2011 at the annual Hastings Community parade in Hastings on the Mornington Peninsula. The image suggests so much about how this special day (and beyond) could be, should be.

For some, Valentine's Day is a commercialised mask for how love should be...Others believe that real love simply lives on even in daily routines...

Others feel a pang of pain for what was or even for what has never been...

Valentine's Day can be a very sensitive day...to so many...

when gushing, flowery words trash the limelight...
