What would you do differently this Valentine?

Rose Motete

  1. Redefine Love
    Valentine’s Day is more than gifts and romantic dinners. What does love truly mean to you this year — romance, self-growth, friendship, gratitude?

  2. Practice Self-Love
    My first plan is to invest in myself — rest, reflect, set goals, and appreciate how far I’ve come. Love begins within.

  3. Show Intentional Kindness
    I plan to intentionally uplift someone — through encouragement, appreciation, or a simple thoughtful act.

  4. Strengthen Meaningful Relationships
    Whether family, friends, or colleagues, I want to nurture connections that genuinely matter.

  5. Ask a Deeper Question
    Instead of “What will I receive?” I ask, “What value will I give?”

Food for thought:
If love were an action and not just a feeling, what would you do differently this Valentine’s Day?
