Time, Health, and Love...or...30 Date Ideas

I probably should be resting or watching a movie or eating a big bowl of popcorn and reading some comic books, but all I can think of is who and what are important to me and how I want to spend my time and my life.  I don’t want to waste time.  Besides health, it’s the most precious gift we have.  Well, there’s one more gift – love.  Time and health and love.  Combining all three, here are some ways I would use them.  The following is a list of ways I can be creative in combining all three, in other words spending time and energy with someone I love.
