Just Love
I’ve put so many restrictions on love: how and why I should love, how and why I should BE loved. Whatever happened to just loving for the sake of it? Nothing in return, just giving love to others despite what my past notions may have been on giving and receiving love. Until I free myself...

Letter from the editors – For The Love Of Me
Krissy: February is here. We can’t help but think about Valentine’s Day. Once again, I’m reminded that I don’t have a Valentine; thanks for asking.
