A
memory of many years ago filled my heart when I was thinking about what I would
like to write for Valentine's Day. I remember very clearly that I had just
finished an idealistic romance novel. As I sat the book down on my night
stand I was consumed with a very sudden and extremely powerful grief. I could
not imagine ever finding love like it was portrayed in the novel. It
must have hurt me a great deal because this was a very long time ago and I
can easily still feel the pain of that moment.
After many
more years of personal development I came to realize that I had been defining
my happiness by someone else's dreams! I must have thought that if my life did
not look like a Danielle Steel novel, then I must be doing it wrong. That could not be further from the truth. We
each have our own definition for happiness and it is ours for the taking. We
need never wait to be happy again. That is why I am writing this for all of you
who do not have a beloved this Valentine's Day or if you do, they are not
meeting your expectations.
So
let's celebrate YOU this Valentine's Day by taking yourself on a date! No more
waiting to be happy. Buy yourself flowers and have them delivered to your
office or home. I find receiving flowers more fun if a delivery
person actually brings them to me rather than picking them up at
a local store. Then take yourself on an adventure and do something that you
have not done in a long time. Maybe you want to go dancing or better yet,
skydiving! Be creative and treat the most important person in your life with
love-yourself. If you take a friend along then remember the rule of silence
when it comes to complaining about what you don't have. This is a celebration
of what you do have. Be happy and celebrate life!
Love
yourself as you would want a partner to love you. The law of attraction in
action! Remember we attract to ourselves what we are giving out.
No
one talks about being happy better than Marci Shimoff in her book, Happy for No Reason.
I highly recommend everyone read it. See her video on youtube.
Happy
Valentine's Day!
