“It’s LOVE that make the world go ’round . . . !”
* * *
Don’t just pretend that you love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Stand on the side of good. Love each other with genuine affection and take delight in honoring each other (Romans 12:9-10 NLV).

Take the Pressure Off Valentine’s Day
Whitney Von Lake Hopler
…
Gazing at bright orange and pink colors streaking across a deepening blue sky at sunset, my husband and I held hands atop a platform on the Eiffel Tower. I thought of the thousands of miles we’d traveled and all the money we’d saved to make this trip to Paris for our 10th wedding anniversary. We’d set the stage for the most romantic evening possible … yet we still ended up with a disappointing experience.

Kiwanis International President Donald Canaday was in the island recently to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Kiwanis in Jamaica, which coincided with the 94th anniversary of Kiwanis International. Jamaica comprises four Kiwanis divisions, 58 clubs and 2,400 members.
..
Canaday, a 38-year veteran Kiwanian, was elected president at the 93rd annual International Convention in Orlando, Florida, in June 2008, to serve a one-year term. The highlight of his visit to the island was the induction of 75 new members during a ceremony at the Hilton Kingston hotel last Thursday. Associate Editor Byron Buckley spoke to Canaday before the start of the ceremony.
……
Why are you in Jamaica?
I am here to celebrate with the Kiwanians of Jamaica. They are a great bunch of men and women who wear the pin of Kiwanis proudly and they serve those who are in need. We are hoping to grow.

“Tomorrow,” his wife angrily told him, “there had better be something
in our driveway that goes from zero to 200 in two seconds flat!”
