The day of LOVE

Standard

As this day comes around every year you can be one of two types of people, “Living in Love” and “Living in Self Pity”. I mean seriously, one can choose to take the day for what it is and flip the switch regardless of relationship status OR you can go on a self pity party and be mad at the world that you have no valentine.

This year single and very much free, I’ve decided to live in love! – Love is not limited to an intimate relationship …. it doesn’t mean you have to have significant over to hug u and keep u warm. THAT isn’t what its about. its about loving and appreciating those around you. Taking the time to let people know you care –  I know we should do this everyday…but hey…theres one day set aside for it on the 365 calender…why not just go out of your way for people this once!

My 2012 resolution was to be a better friend. Sometimes you can get so caught up with our own lives that we forget that your friends need you, even when they don’t ask….so i made sure to send and get valentine gifts for those friends I truly believe may take this day as a pity party (lol) and I mean that in the nicest way possible because its very easy to feel lonely… I want them to remember how loved they are…all of us should! I think this activity actually helped me not to focus on my loneliness and rather just shine love to everyone else…that’s the focus.

ANYWHO….Happy Valentines Day Friends –  Choose to live in love no matter what!!

We all choose our attitudes. Today, choose to rejoice!
Phil 4:4-5 ” Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it all again — rejoice! Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon.”
