Happy Valentine’s Day, friends!

Just a reminder that being alone is the most powerful thing you can do. If you’re confident enough to stand up for what you believe in and follow the path you long to without the need for anyone by your side, you will be capable of accomplishing anything.

Being alone isn’t the state of existing in a void indefinitely but existing with oneself in harmony and with balance, of accepting and loving yourself (flaws and all) and knowing that you’ll be okay when you fall regardless of if someone is there to catch you or not.

Valentine’s Day isn’t a day for couples, as it’ so often showcased as, but for love and the celebration of.

Learn to love yourself as much as you love others, be undeniably and unshakably confident in everything you choose, and, more often than not, remind the people you love that you do, not just by saying it, but also by showing it, and don’t forget about yourself!

Most importantly, don’t let this standard modern society holds of obtaining a relationship rush you into settling for a mediocre/unhappy life.

Besides, in my book, Valentine’s Day is on February 15th — the love of half priced chocolate and champagne!
