Pre-Valentine's...

Valentine's Day...it happens every year, and so often we hear people say they are going to boycott it. But why? It's just a day about love...since when did anyone make a rule saying that it was a day only for couples?  Yes, I know I shouldn't be talking cause I'm in a great relationship...but I do have friends who are single...but it doesn't mean that they can't celebrate love too. We all have people in our lives who are special to us: a mom, a dad, a brother, a sister, etc...

And why not make Valentine's Day everyday?  The fact that people wait an entire year in order to tell someone they love them...it's kind of sad.  You don't need society to grant permission to express your feelings for someone special...do you?!

In light of current circumstances, I have been slapped in the face with a reminder that life is too short and you always need to tell those closest to you that you love them. You never know what could happen or where life will take you....so tell them that you love them! Who knows, maybe it's the first time they've heard it in a long time! But why stop at one day? Every day make it a mission to spread love to those you care about....it will have great effects on their lives I can promise you that! And in the end you'll feel good to knowing that you helped to brighten someone's day by letting them know you're a) thinking about them, b) making them aware that they mean something special to you, and c) putting a smile on their face and touching their heart.

So as Valentine's Day approaches, put away your anti-valentine's sentiments regardless of whether you're single or in a relationship and make it a start to a daily occurence of spreading love!
