With Valentine’s Day approaching, I thought I would share some quotes with you that I find are nice to keep in mind when going through the day and share with others you feel should hear it or may need to hear it. Here are some of my favorites from BrainyQuote.com:

I feel that this applies to everyone. Valentine’s Day may be marketed as a day for couples, but it really isn’t. Show those you care about that you love them, even if you only have the one smile to give.

Hug someone you care about; you don’t have to do something extravagant to show you care. Sometimes all we need is a hug.

 

“Valentine’s Day is a perfect time to reject the idea that the ideal man is taller, richer, more knowledgeable, more renowned, or more powerful.”

-Stephanie Coontz

This is the last quote I’m going to share. Forget about what movies say your perfect guy or girl should look like. Don’t look for someone who has the physical ideals but rather the emotional ones. Look for the ones who care about you in their own way and try to show you when they can. These are the keepers in my book.

Hope you have a fantastic Valentine’s Day with the ones you love.

 

I love dogs, and watching anime. I am a fangirl at heart and poetry is one of my passions.
