Valentine's Day:
I'm not anti-love.... nor anti-show me the love ...
I may however be anti-calender designated recognition of showing the love.. I mean seriously – who needs the reminder TO love – or the pressure of feeling like you’re a “failure” if your not celebrating???
If your in relationship ... I truly hope your both showing the love. Every day ... not because it's February 14 ... relationships take consistent nurturing ..... but sure today, since the calendar is speaking – go ahead and lean in if you needed a boost to love BIGGER – and just love bigger!!!
And if your single... don't allow a calendar designate that you should be sad ... or feel ... less than ... simply because you are not coupled up ... I applaud your courage to walk alone ... rather than be in wrong relationship ... because after all ... we are truly never really alone ... and if you feel alone... then... refer back to this post often today ... because I love you!!!! Even if we don't personally know each other!!!
Because we all deserve love ... because we are all truly connected and because a calendar date doesn't equal obligatory coupling...
And if your missing your loved one today... and this may be the hard one ... lean into your memories and let them wrap you so tightly in the blessing and gift of what was ... that many do not ever get to experience in this lifetime .... and allow yourself to remember they are not gone from you, that love has not ended... they are simply a little further up the road, temporarily out of sight ... but that grand love - well that remains right here for you to still breathe in
So Love the bed that you woke up in, love the fact that you even woke up! Love the sky outside that colors your world in a never ending palette, love the birds that joyously sing to you, love the cool air that kisses your face, love that first sip of coffee as it warms your spirit, love the satiny feel of your own skin – because being comfortable in your own skin is a huge life success!! Love your life experiences – all of them, love every stranger you see today – share a smile and offer a howdy – let those love ripples pour out of you!!
Love every bit of your life – all of it to the depth every emotion can carry you, love every moment of it – because we never have enough of them, today and everyday ... Don't wait for a calendar day to express love and don't wait for somebody else to make you feel worthy of love – however I digress – the calendar is speaking so I dare you to use it to your advantage – and just LOVE today!!
Let Love Lead – and we will silently change the world
Happy Valentines Day,
Katie Abraham Comello
