Dear Wish Fans, It’s February, we’re leading up to valentine’s day and not surprisingly, I felt compelled to write something about love this month. For a lot of my life I have been single for long periods of time, and like a lot of people I know, I always wanted to pretend that Valentine’s Day wasn’t important to me, that it was no big deal – an outdated, clichéd concept that didn’t apply to my life. I wanted to fly under the radar, to pretend it didn’t have any impact on me, that it was just any other day like any other in the year. Sound familiar? But the truth was, some years it really did matter. It mattered a lot because it reminded me that I was on my own. It reminded me that what I really wanted in my life was a partner that really loved me, that made me feel special. Then there were those years, when I absolutely relished being single, loving every moment of my time alone. And the irony always seemed to be that in those moments, I had men coming out of the woodwork and I never seemed that fussed about it.
When I looked back on those times I wondered why that was. And that got me thinking about why it is that some people find it easy to fall in love and some people don’t. And it made me question what real love is. I realised a very simple truth. I was most ‘attractive’ when I was doing what I loved for myself. When I felt happy in my life. In essence, when I was happy in myself. It was about Me and how I felt about Me. The world was simply responding to my vibration. When you do the things that you love and the things that make you happy you step into a higher vibration. A more positive vibration that reflects who you really are: your Authentic Self. 
That’s when you experience Love. Love for yourself and Love for your life, just the way it is, with or without someone else in it. Love is the means and Love is the end. So let me ask the question, what makes you happy? What works for you? What makes you feel good about yourself? What’s your passion? Focus on that. Do that and be that. This Valentine’s Day I invite you to take your Self on a date. Do something you love to do just for you. Buy yourself a flower. Watch the world respond to your vibration.
