Since it’s Valentine’s Day...

We met when I was in my 20s. I was traveling in Ireland on a shoestring. I was young and single and free.

I wasn’t looking for anything. But sometimes love finds you.

Sometimes love just slides up next to you at a bar.

We met somewhere near Shannon and spent a lot of that week together. At the end of the trip, I was sad to leave.

We would have chances to still see each other in the U.S. but it would be different.

It would never be the same as it was that first week in Ireland.

2/
That was many years ago. I’m older now. I have a child. I go out less.

But we do still get together and I still feel that very same love I felt that first week.

We had to stop seeing each other when COVID first hit but we have found ways. An outdoor patio. Ordering takeout.

Valentine’s Day is the time to tell someone how you feel.

So here goes...

Happy Valentine’s Day, @GuinnessIreland

I’ve loved you since we first met. May that never change.

No matter how long it takes, I will always wait for you.
