Valentine's Day No Longer Has Power Over Me

For the first time in many years, I am celebrating Valentine's Day without a feeling of angst, frustration, anger or devastation. Maybe it's because of my age, but the day will come and go without ceremony. I feel free from the outside influences, which dictate that this day is a celebration for couples only. Not true. It is also for those who can love themselves without someone else validating you. I don't need Valentine's Day for validation. I am my own Queen of Love. And, it feels good.
