February is a month we dedicate to LOVE and most of us assume it means the romantic kind of love. However, I think love is about making connections with others.
Lately, I have been thinking about all the connections in my life that I love. There are the natural suspects including family and close friends, people who have been in my life for a long time or those with whom I have had magical, fun moments.
But there is also a long list of other connections that make my life better which I love including:
* My mail person who delivers mail daily. Truly, I love the surprises she brings to my mailbox.
* My grocery store and all the employees who work there; I love that they show up so I can shop easily.
* My clients. I love the challenges they bring to me as well as the opportunity to help solve them.
* My neighbors. They make my world better each day by lending a helping hand, a kind word, friendly smile or even a tool I don't have but need for a project.
* My city and all those who work to make it run, as if by magic at times; lights go on, police show up, firefighters put out fires, water is cleaned, etc.
Love all these daily connections which can be easily be overlooked.
What are the connections in your life that you love? Think about it - those individuals and their actions which make your life easier. Send them some love and appreciate the connection during this month of February!
