February is a time of year when a lot of folk\u2019s thoughts turn to love and many try to express it through St. Valentine\u2019s wishes. \"valentines\"<\/a> I\u2019ve tried to look up the source of St. Valentine\u2019s Day to better understand just how it came to be celebrated on the 14th of February. There are some conflicting explanations out there ranging from Christian martyrs to paganism, European folk traditions and ancient Greek mythology. There are also some places in the world where St. Valentine\u2019s Day is frowned upon as being a \u201cwestern tradition,\u201d bringing with it unwanted cultural contamination. Whatever the source, here in North America and in much of the world it has become our modern-day opportunity to express love. Whether celebrated in poetry, delicious chocolates, or words expressed with a hug, it\u2019s a great way to tell others that they mean a lot to us.
\n\"Pat<\/a>Earlier this week Pat Gann, one of our most creative friends, brought in a plate of chocolate dipped cherry \u201cmice\u201d complete with chocolate kiss heads, almond ears and little white candy eyes.\"Pat<\/a>Yesterday afternoon while she was already running a myriad of other errands, Karen Gordon found time to drop by leaving us with a loaf of fresh baked bread still warm from the oven! Spontaneous acts of kindness like these say a lot and mean a lot. It really brightens up one\u2019s day. It\u2019s the same way for the person doing the giving \u2013 perhaps even more, so if you\u2019re ever having a difficult day or feeling a bit down just do something like that for someone and it\u2019s sure to make you feel better.
\nIn that spirit our slogan for this week is, \u201cSomeone you love needs chiropractic.\u201d \"someone<\/a> We write our slogan for the week in English and Spanish on a little dry erase board in the adjusting room here. I speak Spanish, but it\u2019s not my native tongue (I\u2019m still learning). I always try to translate the slogan and sometimes it\u2019s difficult to translate exactly what is meant into another language. But this time it was easy (Alguien que amas necesita quiropr\u00e1ctica) because love just isn\u2019t a difficult idea to translate. I\u2019m thankful for that, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
