14th Feb

Completed morning program.
Quotable Quotes : Today is Valentine day. I wrote the following in my blog on Valentine Day :
"Grand Children, our Valentines
I wrote about Goa visit in my blog dated 13th July 2009. In this blog you may read the following lines about Valentine Day   :
"It was Valentine day & the restaurant was full of young girls and boys in their best outfits. As we did not order hard drinks, the waiter did not like it and exhibited a grim face. Over the years, St. Valentine has incorrectly been associated with finding love. According to the Roman Catholic Church, St. Valentine is the patron saint for those who have already found their love. In fact St. Raphael is the patron saint for 'happy encounters' and it is to him young lovers should direct their prayers for love and not to St. Valentine. St. Valentine is said to have been martyred in ROME in 269AD."
At our age, I asked myself as to how should we celebrate Valentine day, who our Valentines were. I got the answer that the grand children were our Valentines. We remember them on this day and bless them for happiness in life. I have to go by the common belief of thousands of people about the Valentine day. So you need not strictly go by what I wrote on 13th July 2009. You go by the common perception of the Valentine and Raphael too."
Grandchildren continue to be our Valentines even today.
Today we had lunch with Dr.Prasad, Babloo/Neha/Akshat .

Retired to sleep at about 10.30 pm
