“If the human race wishes to have a prolonged and indefinite period of material prosperity, they have only got to behave in a peaceful and helpful way toward one another.” Winston Churchill

Happy Valentine’s
What do you wish every soul?
Global Love for all

Happy Valentine’s Day 2014! Each day we show kindness and love to a stranger, we become the genie of granted wishes. Sprinkle loving wishes with abundance; it costs nothing and you get richly blessed. More below

 

“Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.” Oscar Wilde

Happy Valentine’s
What else do you wish each soul?
World Peace not Violence

As a war survivor, I know that War will never be the best option to settling differences. Peace is key and it begins with You and Me. In war zones, innocent children, mothers, fathers become casualties of conflict. In situations of domestic violence a Happy Valentine’s Day can be another day to be victimized.

 

“God sometimes does try to the uttermost those whom he wishes to bless.” Mahatma Gandhi

Happy Valentine’s
What more do you wish each soul?
End Pain, Suffering

I wish everyone a very Happy Valentine’s Day! May you find love, peace and pleasure in your home and surroundings. While this is a day for love, hugs and chocolates, some people won’t have anyone to celebrate with them. Send your love, prayers and blessings to the lonely and then sprinkle the rest around the globe.  For more wishes, visit here and here.

    we don’t do Valentine’s day as a couple but instead spread the love to our kids. chocolates are hit for anyone though

  11. 13/02/2014 6:29 pm

    Love the scottish dogs as I call them I am trying to stay away from that chocolate.

  12. 13/02/2014 6:30 pm

    Valentine’s day isn’t a big deal here. But if I was going to wish – I am hoping my parents keep the kiddos so I can have some relaxing time with my hubby!

    Happy Valentine’s Day, Eliz (tomorrow for me).

    My wish is to finish losing my baby weight, so while I won’t be partaking in any chocolate tomorrow, my husband and I will be partaking in some steps towards a healthier life together! I wish for health, for everyone. Great article.

    We are celebrating Valentines day here by making some fabulous cupcakes with the kiddos. I remember back to a day when things were not so good in a previous relationship and Valentines day was always rough for me. Prayers for everyone to have a great day.

  28. 14/02/2014 12:26 pm

    Cute haiku. I should try to come up with something for today. <3

    I dont get much of a Valentines Day with my birthday coming a few days later

  36. 15/02/2014 5:19 am

    “make your wishes global” I love that. I’m so guilty of being selfish with the good wishes I send out. Maybe it’s time I start including others and see what happens.
