Maria the Muse

Tomorrow is Valentine’s day and all week I’ve been informally polling people about how they celebrate this holiday.  I’ve gotten everything from plans for a romantic day to a reluctant sense of obligation to complete indifference.

It’s not important how you do (or don’t) celebrate.  What is important is that you’re happy with your choice.

If you choose to ignore it but have an underlying sense of disappointment or even anger because you don’t have someone special or the someone special you do have isn’t living up to your expectations then you’re not being true to yourself.  Conversely, if you choose to make a big deal of it when your heart isn’t in it then you’re not going to have a good time and the day will be ruined for you.

The bottom line is “do what feels good.”

Treat yourself with the utmost love and care and that is guaranteed to make EVERY day that much better.

Have an inspired weekend!
