My Valentine

Yesterday was Valentine's Day.  I enjoyed all the love energy going around, especially on Facebook.  I myself posted a happy greeting to all my contacts. 
At this time in my life I'm not in a relationship.  Years back, being single on a day like Valentine's would have aroused feelings of loneliness and isolation.  It was motivation to feel melancholy and sad, and wishing I had someone to share with. 
Yet yesterday for me was completely uneventful.  I made no effort to choose to be joyful.  I just felt fine.  I am ok with where I'm at.  I'm actually enjoying this time with myself, and learning to nurture a relationship with my Self, for the first time.   
When I notice things like this, it makes me happy to realize the results of practicing self-love and surrendering to Life just as it is.
