Flowers. Chocolate. Compliments.
Jewelry. Dedicating a song or
writing a poem. Doing all the things you don’t like to do for the one person
who makes your world a better place. When I was twenty, any of the above would
have made my Valentine’s Day. Now that I’m
a mom, washing the sink load of dishes means more than all the tea in China.
The essence of romance might change over the course of our
lifetime, but the sentiments don’t. I
love doing something unexpected, whether it’s simply cutting out hearts from construction
paper and decorating my boyfriend’s office or sending him flowers. People often complain that Valentine’s Day is
too commercial, a way for the greeting card business to have a spike in
sales. But I think it’s a day to remind
us that love is just as essential to our soul for a happy life.
And I’m not just talking about the romance between two
people, but about nourishing yourself.
Your own heart. Taking the time
to do your favorite hobby, or reading your favorite book, or pampering yourself
to a day at the spa. If your soul is
happy, you are happy.
Thanks for joining me on this Valentine’s Day blog hop! I would love to make someone happy with a
romantic ebook so all you have to do is leave a comment & a way to contact
you (I promise not to spam you, I simply don’t have time to track you down),
and one winner will be drawn at random.
Winner can choose any one of my titles!
And be sure to visit the others in this wonderful hop!
I hope your Valentine’s Day is truly magical in whatever form it takes.

The last three years, I've been with a man who had ptsd. I think it is time to nourish and love myself again.

Thanks for the opportunity. I agree that doing things you don't like for someone who means the world to you is a great expression of love. My husband and I do this for each other and we appreciate each other. We don't need a lot to make each other happy (which is good, because we don't have a lot :P ) youngcou@gmail.com
