There’s no reason to downplay what I did.  It matters and please know I’m choosing my next steps in repair.”

The thing I don’t like is I feel like a lot of the things that are done or said on Valentine’s Day are things that should be done and said year round and they’re too easily forgotten.  But I do think that people should remind themselves on a day like Valentine’s Day that everything that they’re doing and saying are things that they should remember and do and say on a regular basis.”
