Valentine's Day, February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering chocolates, and sending cards and valentines. Since the beginning of time people have wanted to be to be in pairs. But what if you are alone on Valentine's Day or you are unsure of where you are at emotionally, or maybe you have a valentine you dream to be with?
As with everything in life we learn by our experiences and our relationships are no different. It might even be with our relationships we learn the most about ourselves and the person we were in relationship with. Our relationships whether with a mate, in the work place, family and friends and self are key to bringing balance and love into our lives. Sadly, many people think it's near impossible to manage all their relationships, they cut them loose when the going gets tough, give up and move on hoping to start all over with some one new. The sad part here is, it brings frustration to any relationship and we end up blaming others for our own miscommunication.
When we understand the wisdom of our heart we are less inclined to be alone and better equipped to bring the kind of love we want into our lives. To gain insight and clarity to where you are at emotionally this Valentine's Day invest in yourself.
Set aside some quiet time to investigate past or present relationships. Write a letter that no one will read but will help you reveal your hearts desire. It might be to your partner, an ex, a boss, a friend or family member, ask the questions you always wanted answered. Write down all the things you couldn't say but wished you had, include all the memories good and bad. Try not to analyze it, just let it flow from your heart. When you think you have written all you can put it aside or better yet sleep on it. When you return to it highlight anything you find unusual or interesting, picking up things you might not have otherwise noticed, these are messages from your heart. Think about what they mean and what your heart is telling you. When the time is right, ask yourself what you would like to do with the letter? Put it in a keep-sake box, place in a bottle and let it go in the ocean, burn it, bury it or even send it.
Within every relationship is the power to heal and to hurt and whether we like it or not we are doing it in every moment of our lives. If you have no Valentine this February 14th, spend some time understanding the wisdom of your hearts desire and you might just have Cupid shooting his bow and arrow inspiring you in romance and courtship.
