A Valentine's Day to remember

 Now some of you might not think this is very romantic but one of the most memorable Valentine's Days I remember in the last handful of years, was last year when my wife and I flew down to Dallas, Texas for a personal development seminar.  Being a voracious reader and a lifetime personal development student, I was in love with the idea of my wife joining me on this adventure.

At this event, which lasted into the wee hours of the night and started at the crack of dawn was intense to say the least and the two days flew by, at least in my opinion.  What a great experience to grow and learn with the love of my life!  After this intense weekend we were both were wiser and more enlightened but even more than that, we were even closer than ever as a result.

There is nothing wrong with flowers and candy but maybe next year you will choose to think outside the 'box' (no pun intended) and take you sweetheart on a personal development adventure of a life time.  I know the hundreds of flowers or the pounds of candy I have purchased over the years are long gone and forgotten.  But if you ask my wife, the Valentine's day (weekend) she will always remember is the one we spend together learning and growing and connecting at a weekend seminar of personal development!
