This year for Valentine’s day, what are you going to do to show your love?

Whether you’re single, in love, attached, have a crush or just a fling; show your guy, girl, yourself, your friends, family or kids some major love this year.

We all need it and the love you share with those around you will be passed on through random acts of kindness! When YOU make others happy, their day gets a little brighter and they will in turn show love to those they love – even if it’s just a smile.

Sometimes you never know exactly just how much others need it. With all the suicides, crimes, hate and murders in this world, Valentines Day can be a day to show your love to everyone – not just romantic love.  It is our job as individuals to raise the energy of the world and improve even one person’s day. The love people in pain are shown may be just enough to prevent a suicide or horrific crime that may have taken place by those who feel lost and hopeless.

If you are feeling down that maybe you don’t have that romantic love you are pining for, just surrender. Let it be and trust that in time you will have that love that you are looking for. Sometimes there are lessons to be learned along the way, and maybe that lesson is to be grateful for all the love you have in your life. Be grateful for your friends, your family love, all of those unconditional loves you have – maybe from a pet, the love you have for yourself (and maybe that is the love you need to focus and work on in order to find romantic love.)

Show love for all that you have, for that Starbucks coffee you can afford, for the job you have, the coworkers that are there for you, even the loves you’ve lost.

Sometimes celebrating the loves you have had, relished and lost are enough to find hope and trust that the universe has something better in store for you!

“Sometimes it is better to have loved and lost, then never to have loved at all.”

Appreciate everything you have, and show love to that Starbucks barista because maybe they are having a rough day too.

No matter who you are, or where you are – we all just want love. So show it to every one you meet for this week and have the greatest valentines gift of all: The gift of inspiring others.

That, my friends is my greatest gift and my most favorite thing to do all week to have the opportunity to inspire even just one person!

Hope that inspires you!

Xoxo
