Happy Valentine’s Day…boo….
If you’ve been reading this blog for long enough, you’ll know I’m not a big fan of this Hallmark day. Too much expectation and drama and not enough emphasis on the basic idea behind the day in the first place - celebrating your love. And that doesn’t have to be just for your significant other, that should be for yourself. However, love yourself and show yourself due care and concern 365 days a year, and don’t just wait for a commercially appointed day to dictate the ‘romance’ in your relationship.
But obviously, if you are celebrating, enjoy! In the meantime, here’s a few love links in honour of the day…

I couldn’t agree more about celebrating yourself on Valentine’s. The well-known Quirkyalone site has actually started referring to Feb. 14 as International Quirkyalone Day.
I think V-Day is also a good opportunity to take your focus off yourself and how single you are and redirect it to all the ways you can show love to others. See my blog on volunteering on V-Day for some ideas:
