The morning after . . .
Many of us consider the success of Valentine's Day to be dependent upon having a significant other. And while that is the obvious intent of the greeting card companies - maybe we need to start a little closer to home. Maybe, we need to check in with our feelings about numero uno.
You are unique and beautiful. There is but one you. It's easy to find flaws when we look at ourselves - I could be thinner; I could be more successful, etc. That continuous loop that runs in our heads reminding us of all of our insecurities. It is time to change the tape (it's probably an eight track anyway!).
The new iPod version is about what an amazing creature you are. Change the dialogue - what about all the amazing things you accomplish every day? Maybe, it is raising a daughter who doesn't judge her worth by the scale. Maybe, it is raising a son who respects women. Maybe, it is accepting yourself and finding beauty in the simple things that encompass your world – like the first buds of spring.
To be loved is the most amazing thing in the world - to love oneself . . . well, that's priceless. So with Valentine's Day a memory, start a new tradition - send yourself a card. In the card write 3 things that you appreciate about you. Thank you for being you.

And more importantly, remember you are loved.
