happy hearts month to all :)

it's that month of the year again where hearts abound and everyone's rushing off to anything and everything bright, shiny red and love depicting. fancy candlelight dinners, overflowing bouquets, boxes and boxes of exquisite chocolates! but are these really what love is all about? are these better testaments of love as compared to other things - spending time, giving a little hug, a little kiss, a warm embrace perhaps?

i used to be in awe of the grand gestures - tangent and very visible professions of love. but as i grew older (and hopefully wiser), i have come to realize that the truest and purest form of love can be seen in the little things. the giving of time - even just a minute or two everyday. surprise calls and emails that wish one well with hints of bountiful hugs and kisses. sudden embraces, snuggling and butterfly kisses on top of one's head while walking. little, simple yet totally surprising acts that makes one feel oh so special and oh so loved!

love love love love love. let's make the world go round and real worthwhile by showing just how great it is to experience how it is to love and be loved!
