Show Love

In today’s society, love is used interchangeably with the word “like” in an effort to show great pleasure for an item, an event, a situation, or even a person. For instance, “I love my new car” or “Oh my gosh! I love that band” or “I loved it when we went fishing off the coast of Maine”. And while perfectly acceptable, the word “love”, when used with its original intention, conjures up such a depth of emotion that it can convey an entire range of emotions, feelings, and attitudes.

Whether you care about a person romantically or platonically may this card remind you to take time to not only say, “I love you” but you take the time to actually show it in your actions. Remember, love is selfless, giving, unconditional, non-judgmental, forgiving, kind, non-restrictive, and so much more.

As to how you can show love to the ones you care about, try these simple tasks:

Cook their favorite meal.
Bake their favorite dessert.
Play one of their favorite games—even if you find it boring.
Watch one of their favorite movies—even if you feel it will kill your brain cells.
Take over their chores for the day—even if you’re exhausted from a hard day at work.
Create a memento of the special moments you shared together.
Buy tickets to their favorite event.
Pick up a trinket on one of your errand runs then write a note on a greeting card explaining why that trinket brought them to mind and mail it—even if you live in the same house.

Keep Creating
