I started writing you a Happy Valentine's Day message the other day, but I ran into some technical difficulties. My internet provider was down. And, so my Happy Valentine Message to you did not go out. But today, I thought, everyone, every single being on the face of this earth can always use some extra LOVE!! We don't have to wait for Valentine's Day to show and tell people we love them. So I thought I would send you this message anyway even if it is a few days PAST Valentine's Day. 

For me Valentine's day is just another day where we can give LOVE and show LOVE. Where we can show people that we love them and how much we care about them and how much they mean to us, by simply letting them know. By doing some little thing or by doing something special, by sending a card, a note, a text, making a phone call to say "I Love You", sending flowers or giving one flower. When we were not in the midst of a World Wide Pandemia, I would suggest giving someone or several people a hug or smiling at everyone you see. Right now we are all wearing masks, social distancing and isolating! NOW more than ever people can and will benefit from any act of KINDNESS or LOVE.

Tell someone, "you are very special to me and I love you!" The ways we can show people love are endless really. Here are some more ideas: a kind word, opening the door for someone, paying them a sincere compliment, acknowledging someone for something, thanking them for being there, providing positive feedback for a job well done, performing a kind act, paying for someone's meal or coffee, Letting someone ahead of you in a grocery line up, letting someone know you appreciate them, telling the cashiers and grocers you are so happy they are there and you appreciate them, telling your friends and loved ones their top 5 strengths or what you love and admire about them. There is so much more that we can do to show people we love them and care about them, not just on Valentine's day but every day!

I love this quote: " “Praise is like sunlight to the warm human spirit; we cannot flower and grow without it. And yet, while most of us are only too ready to apply to others the cold wind of criticism, we are somehow reluctant to give our fellow the warm sunshine of praise.” ~ Dale Carnegie

Give someone some praise today.

I am sending you much Love <3 Today and Every Day!
