Typically, when we think of Valentine's Day, we think of love and romance. For those who've experienced or are going through a divorce or breakup, for those who are grieving the death of their person and for those longing for partnership, this commercialized holiday can be especially hard on the heart...even if you try to ignore it. It can also be challenging for anyone grieving the loss of connection, as despite what the media wants us to believe, this is also a holiday to appreciate all of the love in our lives, including family and friends.
