Today, if you are single, don't be surprised if you fall in love at first sight or say things that you thought you'd never dare utter. If attached, don't be surprised if you or your partner decides to read poetry to each other, or open a bottle of champagne at the spur of the moment. Take advantage of this wildly romantic mood and savor each moment as it sparkles past you.
