Valentine's Day

The following is from the newsletter I get at work.  I thought I would post this as it is almost Valentine's Day.

"HOW DO YOU SAY 'I LOVE YOU'?"

"Everyone needs to feel love in different ways.  For some, it's words; for others, it's action.  There are many ways to let someone know how deeply you care.  Here are some ideas:

"1.  LEAVE A NOTE IN A LUNCHBOX OR BRIEFCASE.  Use the note to say thank you for what you appreciate abouit the person or include a promise of what you might do for him or her (such as make dinner, give a back rub, etc.)

2.  SEND AN E-MAIL DURING THE DAY.  It doesn't have to be overly mushy.  A simple, "I'm thinking of you" can make people feel they are loved.

3.  PITCH IN WITH A TO-DO PROJECT THAT YOUR LOVED ONE HAS WANTED TO START/COMPLETE.  it doesn't matter what it is.  It can be painting a room, repairing a leaky faucet, or organizing the home office, for example.

4.  SURPRISE YOUR SPECIAL SOMEONE WITH SPONTANEITY.   Without letting him or her know ahead of time, plan an evening out or a daytrip.  Knowing that you put time and effort into planning something can be as meaningful as the activity itself."
