A Valentines Quote
Love comes from our hearts. Buying someone candy, flowers or a ten carat diamond is an action that is not necessarily given from one’s heart (although at times it is). We are continuously being lured into the illusion of happiness by way of our wallets and the shiny things. Wouldn’t you rather have someone randomly express their love to you from their heart with something that has no price tag on it, than to be given an expensive gift out of their feeling of obligation? Not sure about you but I know what my answer is. I’m not trying to rain on anyone’s parade here, I think the energy of true love that is expressed on this particular day is uplifting and raises the love vibe on the planet, however I see it causing an equal amount of stress and sadness.
So to all of you beautiful couples out there who celebrate your love on random days throughout the year and don’t buy into the hoopla, I admire you. For those who feel pressured to ‘do something’ for your partner because it says so on the calendar (or you’re afraid you’ll end up in the doghouse if you don’t)…stop buying into it. Make a new tradition with your honey that you invest the money you were going to spend on each other for Valentine’s Day and make a donation to the SPCA or sponsor a hungry child. Then on some random day when you’re feelin’ the love, buy flowers or surprise her somehow.
For all of you beautiful single people out there who wish you had a partner, don’t be angry or sad tomorrow, raise your energy up by celebrating and honoring yourself today and everyday. Make yourself a candle lit dinner and enjoy your own company, write yourself a love letter, learn to love and treat yourself all year long.
