Cupid, the Greek god, meets St. Valentine, meets Crown Hallmark. February 14th. It's like Christmas - happens the same day every year. It's a day in which chocolate hearts are a big deal, florists are hoppin, and maître d's have booked all their tables.
Manufactured romance some call it. But I see it as a opportunity. An opportunity to show the ones you love that you care. Lets face it, we take the ones we love for granted and don't always take the time to appreciate them. We are creatures of habit which is part of the reason holidays work. We are 'supposed' to do this on this day....that on another day. Is it really so terrible that there is a day that we are 'supposed' to show love? With the hustle and bustle of our busy American lives, a little reminder doesn't hurt. Just ask Siri.
Romance is tricky business. Not one thing works for everyone. Some like flower dancing...And other like candles. Whether you prefer flowers, a card, wine, bubbles, jewelry, or monster trucks, remember to take some time today and other random Thursdays during to year to show that special one you care..and appreciate...and love. Make it a habit. In this aspect of life, a little goes a long way.
