Valentine's Day.
As today comes to an end, I am hoping you were not bitter. But, if you were, that's okay.
If you had plans that didn't go accordingly or happen at all, I hope that you took time to focus on yourself. And no, I don't mean the cliche version of focus on yourself. I mean focus your love and attention on you. I hope that while you may have had a bad day, you managed to get out of bed. I hope you ate today, and more than just chocolate. But, if that's all you had, I am really proud of you for eating something. I hope you enjoyed it. I hope you showered today and got all dressed up. I hope you made yourself feel confident. But, if you stayed in your pajamas and couldn't find the energy to tend to your hygiene, that's okay, too. At least you woke up today, that is what matters. If instead of finding yourself in the middle of a romanic soap opera, you found yourself drowning in heartbreak, that is okay, too. This isn't a real holiday and you will eventually get to experience what everyone else did. But, on a better note, you have yourself and you made it another year. That is the important thing to remember.
Today was all about love and it is easy to forget you need love, too. Your mind, your energy, your being needs love.
Today, I hope you did something you love to do. I hope you sat down with yourself and told your mind and heart that you are worthy and you will attract what you have been craving. It just takes time.
Today, if nothing else, I really hope you did not hold bitterness in your heart. I hope that you see and understand that while it seems like everyone else gets the one thing you deserve... there's also seven billion people in this world and you are not the only one struggling. I hope knowing that brings you some sort of comfort.
I hope you gave out free smiles today as a replacement of your love. And while today is about giving love to everyone, you shouldn't be so generous with it. So, I hope that instead of giving away the only source of pure innocence you have, you smiled.
Not everyone deserves your love. But, everyone deserves at least a smile.
You never know what people go through.
Most importantly, I hope you loved yourself today.
You are human, too.
