It’s natural to get pulled in to holiday vibes and their celebrations, especially as the day rapidly approaches and we still want or need to get our significant other a gift or card that expresses our feelings for them, as pertaining to whichever holiday it is.

So… with Valentine’s Day being our next opportunity to impress upon the hearts of those we have affection for just how much they mean to us, will we use this opportunity to our advantage, and let them know the extent of our emotional connections, even if it’s just on a friendship level?

Or do we readily remind those we care about just how much they do mean to us on a daily basis?

If not, and we have become a little lax, maybe inadvertently taking each other for granted, shouldn’t we start today reminding each other just how important we are to us? After all, we never know what the next moment will bring, and we might forever lose the chance to bring that certain knowing feeling to the hearts of those we cherish…

I have to admit I don't take the time to tell my friends on a regular basis how much I care for them but my life is crazy busy. I contacted one of my friends two weeks ago and asked him if I could buy him lunch. Once in a while; I will contact a friend and meet for coffee. Just last night I called a friend who said on Facebook that he was feeling down so we chatted for about 3 hours. So, I do try to make the attempt when I can. As for Valentine's day; I don't normally do anything on that day but for the last two years; a friend of mine had brought me two Roses in a small vase as he feels that I shouldn't be forgotten on Valentine's day. He is such a great friend.

navygirl, I think your friends know how you feel about them by your kind and generous nature, actions speak much louder than words... and your friend who doesn't let you go unnoticed on Valentine's day sounds like a real sweet heart... you are fortunate to have good friends who care about you too... flowerforyou

I brought my male neighbor a big steak a few days ago just to say "hi" and see how he's doing...He's a widower and the holidays were rough for him without his wife...He's been hibernating and staying inside most of the time lately and I wasn't sure if he even had food to eat in his house...Having company must have helped. I saw him outside yesterday and he said he walked down to the river and enjoyed being outside again..I've been alone since my husband and son died (too) and I know it's easy to get into the "hibernating mode."...I post on the forum at times just to feel part of the world! (And less alone.) Need the mental stimulation too!

cool, that you breathed some life back into your neighbor by your generosity... especially since hibernation can be so comfortable in winter, it's just that darn "being alone in it" part that sux so much... and I'm glad you're posting on the boards, cuz I've enjoyed getting to know you... flowerforyou

Thanks...I've sure enjoyed your posts and threads. And I enjoy getting to know you too...I enjoy your "active mind" and unlimited curiosity...Mostly I'm a loner. It's just me here with the 2 cats I have left. My son died in September. And one of my son's cats died 2 weeks later...Then one of my cats died last month...I don't see people all the time. My close-close friends live far away now...The widower and I are going to have lunch out on Valentine's Day strictly as friends...He's not over losing his beloved wife yet and I still have grief to work through over losing my husband and both my sons.

Greeneyes that's fantastic news... a casual lunch date for Valentine's day... good for you... :)... all of your loss back to back is a cruel twist of fate, and I'm so glad you're able to find comfort in the company of your friends, as well as your two remaining cats... :heart: flowerforyou
