Sending You Love

I don't have any sage-like wisdom to share today. I just wanted to make a short post sending out some love and goodness to all of you out there. 

I know that Valentine's Day isn't the easiest day for many of you. I know this because I've been in that space where I literally felt angry every time I saw someone post a picture of flowers or anything cute. It's heart-crushing. You have so much love to give and feel like you don't have anyone willing to take the step to share it with you. Perhaps someone did take that step to share it with you and took advantage of what you had to give. 

What's hard to remember on a day like Valentine's Day is how many forms love can come in. I do feel insanely lucky to have Mark. But even without him in my life, taking him out of the equation entirely, I am SO lucky to have all of the love in my life from my friends and family. It's sometimes not easy to remember all of the other people we have in our loves who radiate love our way and wrap us in that blanket of comfort. 

So, I have some hopes and wishes for you: 

I hope that you feel loved everyday 

I wish you a lifetime of friendships that are uplifting

I hope that your heart can smile on days when it wants to frown 

I wish you many people who want the best in life for you 

I hope that you can find lessons in heartbreak

I wish you more love than heartache 

I hope that your family makes you feel warm, welcome, and cared for

I wish you beautiful memories, both old and yet to be made 

Happy Love Day (and half price off of candy! Go get that!)
