Yes, Valentine's Day has become a commercial, cynical "holiday."  But ya know what?  Who cares!  We take for granted times in life to outwardly show our love for people that we love.  So why not set aside at least one day during the year where it's okay to express that love for your significant other, your best friends, your mom, your dog...whoever.  A little more love in the world has never hurt anyone.  It only helps bring more peace and good vibes.  

This year it marks the 5th year anniversary of my grandma's death.  And since she passed, it will now always be an even more special day for me.  A day to mark her loving spirit.  She has influenced me in many ways to be the adventurous, creative gal that I am.  So, cheers to sharing love this weekend in all sorts of ways.  :)
