Love is such a beautifully prismed wonder. I hope that each and every one of you had a lovely day. I love this moment. While it looks like I am standing here alone, what you can’t see is me looking over at my family as we explored one of Paris’ great wonders. The love of my family is the fire that fuels everything that I do.

I know this day can be rough for a lot of people. And if you haven’t had a sincere expression of love up until now, here is one from me to you.

You are amazing. The world is better for having you in it. You are loved and you are not alone.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
