A non-mushy, non-sentimental Valentines blog

Valentine's Day focuses on love, and especially romantic love. 
So for those who aren't in a romance, it can be depressing.  It was for Sophia. One Valentine's Day, she was newly divorced and working at a new job where she hadn't had a chance to make any friends yet. She walked by the receptionist only to see candies and vases of flowers.  The woman in the cube next to her received a dozen roses.  Then the guy on the other side spent hours talking about what his girlfriend was going to do for him (a bit too loudly so she couldn't help hearing).
So she wrote this post -- something for all of you who don't have a special someone, or whose special someone isn't around or isn't the romantic type.

 It's also good to read if you're just looking for something uplifting .  She titled it --
Things I love that have nothing to do with Valentine's Day.

1) Sunsets over water

2) Sunsets just about anywhere
3) Cherry tress in bloom

4) Birds chirping
5) Daffodils in bloom
6) The way babies smell when they've just had a bath
7) Going for a long walk in a quiet park on a warm spring day

8) And last but not least -- Pushing the publish button on a blog post!

Thanks for reading --  I have a hunch that she didn't get them all -- what would you add?

Nancy
