Valentine’s Day Outreach For The Lonely And Broken-Hearted
Valentine’s Day is coming up in less than a month and for many it is a sad, lonely day. 
For the widowed and divorced, it brings feelings of sadness and longing for the love that is lost. 
For the single and unmarried, it can be hard as they are painfully aware of their  unrealized hopes and dreams. 
The lonely on this day range from teenagers, to the aged in a convalescent home. 
Feeling unloved, can apply to kids in the foster care system, 
or someone who is home bound because of disability. 
Feeling sad on Valentine’s Day is  not just a female thing. I’ve heard from teen boys,
 as well as grown men. The need to feel loved and cared for is universal to us all. 
Valentine’s Day does not just have to be about romantic love.
read the link and discover ways to give love away on a lonesome day.
Val Day For The Lonely And Broken-Hearted 
Let  your creative juices start flowing and let’s start a tsunami of love 
that covers the world this Valentine’s Day! Please share this and pass it on.

1. Light a candle and dedicate your life to God's Love. 
2. Call your parents and tell them you love them / or bake them a cake. 
3. Send all your friends a text message or an ecard and tell them how much they mean to you.

4. Invite friends to dinner and tell them they are here because they are important in your life.
5. Buy flowers for someone who has done a lot, a babysitter, teacher or neighbour who looks after your animals. 
6. Text your brother and sister a "Happy Valentine's Day" message and an "I love you." 
7. Spread love around. Give chocolates to colleagues, elderly neighbours and single friends. 
8. Minister to those hurting, suppressed,  lonely or sick. 
9. Visit the local nursing home and wish everyone a happy Valentine's Day. 
10. Meditate on God's love, and let His spirit of love flow from you. 
While romantic love is a beautiful thing, it's only one form of love, and neither is it the greatest love.
God's agape love is.
Demonstrating compassion and fostering intimacy and closeness with one another
 is a true love and one of the key factors in contentment. 
Every day provides an opportunity to be a hero to someone, through small but significant acts of love. 
May this Valentine's Day be a time to explore ideas for loving.

"The rose is the flower of love - 
the world has acclaimed it so for centuries. 
The pink roses are love hopeful and expectant 
- the white roses are love dead or forsaken - 
but the red roses - are love triumphant!" 
~~~ L.L. Montgomery

A rose fresh plucked from the garden
 taken to her with love in your eyes, 
can be enough,
Being genuine and truly loving her is her dearest desire.
Gold-dipped roses, crystal roses, rose jewelry, rose artwork - many beautiful roses to choose from.
Red roses have long been a traditional Valentine's Day gift for lovers. 
Fresh flowers have an unmatched beauty, 
but there are also roses that never fade, 
made of gold and unperishable crystal, silver and paint.
Here are roses - both flower and art,  -- the color of your love for years to come!

"...A work of art is like a rose. 
A rose is not beautiful because it is like something else.
Neither is a work of art. 

Roses and works of art are beautiful in themselves."
~~~ Clive Bell

Memories Book

You have created a bunch of memories, 
Valentine's Day is the perfect opportunity to gather keepsakes and have a personalized gift that will show
 how much you appreciate your relationship.
Guys-relax and just write and add what you like, she will love it, no matter how simple,
Girls- go as creative as you like, just have fun, it's a keeper.
♥♥♥♥♥
Make a list of the moments you want to include in your memory book.
 Look for pictures you took on those occasions. 
If you don't have photos for each memory you want to reiterate, don't panic.
 There are other solutions. You can recreate the atmosphere using other clues: 
pressed leaves for a walk in the park, a drawing of the Eiffel Tower for a trip to Paris, etc. 
Now take a notebook and assemble everything in a creative way. 
Add some words coming from the bottom of your heart.

Handmade Jewellery
Jewellery is another thing women love, but you have already showered her with all sorts of design earrings, necklaces and bracelets. Without spending a fortune, this year you can offer her a special garment you made yourself. If you are not good at handcrafts, maybe you should start with something easy, 
but nevertheless interesting like a lace pendant.
Look for a piece of lace fabric. It can be an old one as long as its condition is good.
 Cut out the pattern carefully and attach it on both sides to a chain necklace. 
For better effects, you can use a stiffening solution and iron the lace before hooking the chain.
