Folks, what is Valentine’s Day to you? Is it something special, a day you eagerly anticipate? Or is it just another date on the calendar, something that holds little meaning in your daily life? Do you celebrate love in grand gestures, or do you find meaning in quieter, more personal ways?
As for me, there’s something about February that carries a certain warmth, an almost tangible energy of love filling the air. Just as December is wrapped in the spirit of Christmas, bringing families together with joy and laughter, February has its own way of making hearts a little softer, gestures a little kinder, and love a little more intentional.
I won’t pretend that I didn’t love the attention, the thoughtful gestures, and of course, the chocolates that came with Valentine’s Day. There was something special about receiving small tokens of appreciation, reminders that I was seen and loved. But in the spirit of the month of love, back at work (many years ago), an idea just poured in that I wanted to do more to not just receive love, but to share it.
