These days when you walk into almost any store, you’re greeted by all things red and pink. Valentine’s Day playlists pop up in our music apps. Valentine’s Day is here!

Growing up in Denmark I had never heard of this day, but now it is celebrated there as well, at least by some. Many stores and bakeries are reminding the Danes that the day is coming, just like they are here in the US.

It’s nice to have a dedicated day on which we express our love to the special people in our lives because sometimes we just don’t say it enough. But I hope it also serves as a reminder of the importance to let others know how much they mean to us, not just on this day of love but throughout the year.

I wish you all a happy Valentine’s Day!
