February 14

There's nothing wrong, of course, with delighting in love and honoring friendship and stopping in the bleak midwinter to tickle the people we love. But it's also a good sign of psychosocial health if the day just saunters by and winks, and you feel no need to pay attention. The minute it feels like a duty, it has lost its purpose. "Love sought is good," Shakespeare observed, "but given unsought is better."

Hello, I've wanted to go to Holy Resurrection for a while now but have always chickened out last minute because of fears of committing a mistake here and there. What did you do when you first went there?
