thanks to Over the Rhine for such a beautiful valentine wish...
Hello young lovers wherever you are,
Hello not-so-young lovers with hearts fixed on the prize of growing older together, one day at a time, come what may,
Hello to those flying solo, learning to love just the feel of being human,
Hello to those head over heels in a tangle of a wrecked bed, blurring ego boundaries with an eager protagonist, drunk on it,
Hello to those who could never live with another human being and are okay with that knowledge (Fran Lebowitz),
Hello to those married with young children, running their domestic marathon,
Hello to those in love with the sky only, the very breathable air, restlessly content with this earthly mix of sometimes joy, sometimes longing, sometimes loneliness, sometimes surprising laughter,
Hello to those in love with the whole human predicament,
Hello to the broke, the well-heeled, the lucky, the lost, the quiet, the gifted, the empty-handed, the adopted, the beginners, the almost finished, the starting over, the music makers, and those with the gift of hearing and receiving the music,
Hello.
