Today is Valentine’s Day. While I like the romantic idea of it, I don’t buy into all the commercial crap that surrounds Valentine’s Day. I can have a good time with J any other day of the year and I don’t need Valentine’s Day for him to show me that he loves me (or vice versa).
Therefore, I am participating in Snackie’s Self-Love Day, because Valentine’s Day is not only about loving your significant other and your family and friends, but also about loving yourself (which is sometimes a challenging thing to do).
Here are the rules:
1.) Post one of them thar banners on your blog and declare February 14th as the day you not only love your one and only, but the day that you love yourself! (For those of you who need help, all you do is right-click over the image of your choice then click on “save” and save it wherever you want.)
2.) Post one nice thing about yourself; then ask others to post one thing that they really like about you.
3.) Enjoy yourself!
So, here’s one thing that I love about me: my dedication. I know that this is a very general term, but that’s a good thing and I’ll tell you why: my dedication applies to every single part of my life.
Once I dedicate myself to someone or something, I’ll give everything for them/it and then some.
I don’t easily give up, but will go the extra mile for someone/something.
I like this about me (even though I know that it makes me vulnerable sometimes).
Let me know if you posted something for “Self-Love Day” so I can come over and show you some love! :)
