No Lover

2/2/2015

Valentine's Day can be a tough day for those people who find themselves sans a lover.

The media and commercialization of this holiday can confront single people smack in the face as a reminder that they're all alone.

This can create depression, sadness, feelings of inadequacy, guilt and shame. People sometimes assign meaning to their own identities by defining their sense of worth solely on their attachment to a significant other.

This may set a person up for negativity and victim hood.

I encourage you to look at all of the things which are going your way in life.

Good health

Friendships

Stable employment

Financial security

Faith and spirituality

Make a gratitude list and focus on all of the blessings and put into perspective the fact that Valentines is one day in the year which gives you the opportunity to show LOVE to yourself.

Celebrate you!
