Be Your Own Valentine

My partner and I don’t do the Valentine’s Day thing. It’s not a major protest or anything, we just don’t want to deal with restaurant reservations and we try (he’s way better at it than me) to be romantic with each other more often than a holiday suggests. There is also just something about this holiday that irks me, but I can’t quite pinpoint it. Anyway, blah blah blah, I do like the definition of a valentine; a sweetheart chosen or complimented on Valentine’s Day. What would you do with a moment where you choose yourself? When’s the last time you even gave yourself a compliment? Whatever would float your boat, I hope you indulge in it. Maybe buy yourself some new jewelry or get some flowers for that empty vase. Treat yourself to something delicious! At the very least, take a minute to sit quietly with yourself and find gratitude in the fact that you just got to hang out with a really cool person.
