Till att börja med så är det
Alla hjärtans dag den 14 februari.
                               Då skall vi ägna våra kära och nära, vänner och familj, en varm tanke, och förhoppningsvis, i de fall det låter sig göras, något mer än så.
 




Vidare läsning om August Mattson finns i form av boken Enslingen på Bockön av Evert "Salbo" Sahlberg, tidigare lokalredaktör för Nerikes  Allehanda,
verksam i Hallsberg under många år. Vidare finns att läsa i boken En krönika om Hallsberg av Nils Samzelius, utgiven av Almqvist & Wiksells 1962.

Valentine & Valentine's Day, February 14th 

Alla hjärtans dag 14 februari

Att fira alla hjärtans dag den 14 februari är som exempelvis Fars dag, och får alltmer uppmärksamhet. 
Det nutida firandet har sina rötter i U.S.A.
I engelsktalande länder har Valentindagen firats sedan 1300-talet med att man skickar en liten present eller ett kort till någon man tycker om.
-Kanske skall du rentav vara lite extra trevlig som omväxling?
När gav du någon en kram senast?

Bjud denne "någon" på bio, teater eller middag eller ge bort en (hjärtformad?)chokladask,
utan någon annan anledning än att vara vänlig.

-"Make love, not war!"

  A Story - Flirting

The minister arose to address his congregation. "There is a certain man among us today who is flirting with another man's wife. Unless he puts ten dollars in the collection box, his name will be read from the pulpit." When the collection plate came in, there were 19 ten dollar bills, and a five dollar bill with this note attached: "Other five on payday."
