Fun Friday – Love and Inspiration – 3 Ways to celebrate the month of love

Red hearts, chocolate, roses, and poetry…ahhh, love is in the air. February is the month of love (as well as Heart Month and Black History Month). Show a little extra love to yourself and spread that love to friends and family.

When you spread love, you’ll also get that warm fuzzy feeling on the inside. Here are 3 ways to celebrate the month of love…

1.      Watch a romantic comedy
2.      Send a card to a friend you haven’t seen in a while
3.      Write a poem – even if you don’t think you’re a writer. Go ahead try it, you might surprise yourself
Just for fun, take this challenge, create a love poem about something you love. I’ll go first to show you how easy it is. All you need to do is fill in the blank.

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
I love _____________
How about you?

So, my poem would read…
Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue
I love “writing”
How about you?

Your fill-in-the-blank can be funny, serious, inspirational, whatever you want. It can be one word or a phrase. If you want to play along write your word or phrase in the comments for a chance to win a copy of my book Menopause Ain’t No Joke – Blending Faith and Humor in Perfectly Imperfect Situations.



Post your word/phrase by midnight Eastern Standard Time, February 3, 2019.

May this month of love inspire you to do something that you’ve always wanted to do.


NOTE: the book will be shipped free of charge if the winner resides in the United States.
