Valentines


Its the day of love.

In a Buddhist prayer the first line reads:

"May all sentient being have happiness and the cause of happiness."

The line refers to love, as something that you wish for everyone, consequently for everyone to wish for everyone else, and for yourself.

This is my wish for you.

On Valentine's Day consider buying Free Trade Chocolate.

Basically that would be chocolate that actually pays the farmers, generally small farmers in Africa's Ivory Coast, a reasonable wage. Free trade chocolate is a little more expensive but the benefits are great. Its pretty good stuff, it will take care of your chocolate fix very well.

And here is my Valentine's Day present for you. Its a free Computer Screen Cleaner.
