Valentine Love Forever

O my luve's like a red, red rose

That's newly sprung in June;

O my luve's like the melodie

That's sweetly play'd in tune.   -Robert Burns

You don't need to justify your love, you don't need to explain your love; you just need to practice your love.   - Miguel Ruiz

The ancient Greeks categorized love into four forms:

- Philio (affectionate and tender platonic love);

- Storge (love for family and friends, often sacrificial);

- Eros (passionate and intense romantic love);

- Agape (unconditional love for our fellow human beings).

Pandora jewelry makes a statement this Valentines Day.
