Rafe looks forward to (St.) Valentine's Day and what it means from the Romans' Lupercalia, to multiple Saints (and a pope) Valentine, to shoeboxes with pink construction paper, to candy hearts, to philia, eros, and agape, to feelings and choices, to others as others, to St. Paul and the Corinthians (not those who made the famed Corinthian leather), to patience, kindness, bearing, believing, hoping, and enduring, to agape leading to eros, and to our ultimate desire to return to God.  

Happy St. Valentine's Day on February 14th!
