Valentines Day -- Create a "Why I Love You Box"




It's almost Valentines Day and I have to confess this is one of those holidays that has dual meaning for me. Why?

First, the commercialism and the focus on "what did you get me" or "what did you do for me." The holiday seems to be focused on both the ego and eros.

Want to do something different? This year, try this . . .


Create a “Why I love you box”. Take a small box, decorate it beautifully. Then write down (or type) all the reasons why you love that special someone. Get creative. Giving someone all the reasons why you love them will cost you next to nothing (except a little time and creativity) and will put the focus of this holiday where it should be . . . on the one(s) you love!
