My sister sent me this, it's from an article she found on ivillige about Valentine's Day and I thought it might be a good reminder to everyone:
In short, the history of the holiday comprises beatings, torture, martyrdom and sexual enslavement. But I refuse to let that kind of negativity ruin the true meaning of Valentine's Day.
Which is chocolate.
I'm teasing, of course. I know that the true meaning of Valentine's Day is expressing love for those about whom we care the most, but obviously the best way to do this is by giving those we love chocolate. And as any good sex and relationship expert will tell you, you can't truly love another until you fully and completely love yourself.
Which means you need to give yourself chocolate before you give it to anyone else.
It's like that thing on airplanes where they caution you to put on your own oxygen mask before you help others with their masks. By giving yourself the gift of chocolate, you are giving those who love you a gift as well ‑- the gift of you taking the pressure off them to get you the kind of chocolate you want and, quite frankly, need.
Simply put, chocolate is the number one substance that can improve your love life. Chocolate is an emotional nutrition powerhouse, which has recently been shown to have antidepressant qualities and functions chemically similar to Prozac.
Love, Laura
