Day Y
February 15. The day After Valentine’s Day.
What if yesterday was just another day?
What if you woke up every day thinking about the person you love. Thinking about ways in which you could let them know.
It’s not all about flowers and chocolate and cards.
Sometimes it’s an unexpected kiss, holding their hand, opening a door, or simply stopping them in the hallway, holding them still as you look into their eyes and honestly, authentically, telling them that they mean the world to you… just because.
What if that was today? and tomorrow? and the day after that….
What if you took time out of your day, every day, to say I love you like it was Valentine’s day.
And if you don’t yet have someone to say I love you to, say it to yourself, because you can’t love someone else if you don’t first love yourself. And write a letter to the love you will someday meet. Get clear about who they are, what they are like, how much you are both perfect for each other. Writing has power. Sometimes you just have to get clear on what you want in order to find it.
Maybe Valentines Day shouldn’t be on February 14th. Maybe it should be on very special days. The ones where we get to wake up and love and be loved.
You know the ones.
The days that end in Y.
