Valentine’s Day is often touted as the biggest celebration of love worldwide. From lovestruck couples to besties, family and friends, this one day is a celebration of confession of one’s feelings and emotions. But, why limit this fantastic festival of love to only the culmination of romantic bliss. There are a billion colors of love and this Valentine’s Day, we bring you the forms of love that are worth celebrating and often overlooked in the overwhelming romantic spell. Here’re the forms of love that need your love & affection too:
Pet Love
What is true love if not the unconditional affection from a furry companion! The moment you enter the house, this furry buddy is ready with kisses and hugs welcoming you not just to the home but also to its heart. This Valentine’s Day, take this opportunity to return the love to this beloved friend who knows nothing more than love and wants nothing more than care and affection. Treat them, pet them, play with them and spend time with your loyal friends, that’s all they want from you.
Spiritual Love
You always want to love yourself. But, what’s the path to self love? As the wise men say, spirituality is the path that leads to the freedom of the soul. Begin your journey towards gracing a spiritual future this Valentine’s Day. Spirituality is not following one’s traditions and customs, it is a path of understanding the potential of one’s soul and balancing the energies within oneself. Align yourself with the universe, meditate, balance your chakras and focus on the energy that flows within you to live a fruitful life ahead. It’s time to open your heart for the cosmos!
Emotional Love
Remember that one friend, person, relative or even a pen friend with whom you can truly let out your feelings and emotions? They hold you when you cry and make you believe in yourself when you are low and vulnerable. Practically they are the one’s who bring you stability and motivate you to be emotionally-strong without being shy to accept your vulnerability. This platonic friendship is worth celebrating, especially when the celebration of love is around.
Sharing Love
Sharing is caring & caring is love! People who keep others first, are the one worth celebrating. This Valentine, celebrate the most important people in your life who have shared with you a special unconditional bond. Whether it is your teachers who shared their wisdom with you, or it is that one person who helped you out of misery, their unconditional support and help is what we call a beacon of humanity & love. This Valentine’s Day, be someone’s light and lend your support to humane causes and organizations who make you believe the world is such a wonderful place.
Sibling Love
From friendships to fights, this one person has taught you all! It is none other than your beloved sibling. Sibling love is hard to define. One minute you are showering love and the very minute you both are fighting over a piece of cake. That’s the beauty of this relationship. A guardian, a friend, a competitor, a mentor, a forever companion – that’s what a sibling means to you. So, why not celebrate your sibling this Valentine’s day. After all, they are ones who know all your secrets!
