Holiday's are all about perspective, I think, especially Valentine's Day - or Single Awareness Day as it is sometimes called by those of us who have no sinificant other to share the "lovers" holiday with. I confess Valentine's Day used to be depressing for me because I was focusing on what I didn't have - I have ALWAYS been single on Feb. 14th.
But this year it's different - not because I'm not single, I am still - but because I changed my perspective. This holiday is not all about romantic love, it's about love, all types of love. Love for your family, love for you friends and yes love for your special someone.
So this year instead of dwelling on poor ole single me I decided to focus on what I do have - some pretty awesome friends and showing them how much I appreciate them and the support they give me - cause without them life would be pretty lonely.
And guess what? Instead of dreading this day I have been super anxious for it to get here and woke up excited this morning. Not because I think someone is going to send me flowers or buy me candy or take me to dinner but because tonight I get to delivery a little bit of holiday cheer and I'm so giddy with excitement I can hardly wait for the work day to end.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!
