All you need is Love

Love.

It's such a strong word.

Some people use it casually.

Some say it with feeling.

And others, well, they just don't use it at all.

I always end all emails with 

Love, Neha.

[unless it's a client - which is when I write Regards, Neha so they don't think I'm crazy].

But so often I've noticed how people, including my own friends end emails with

just a name.

Ok so here's the thing.

I know your name since I know the email is from you.

But what's the harm in sending a little love?

I won't get freaked out and think you want to marry me.

Don't worry.

I've been single for a long time now.

And when I say long, I mean a la la la la long, a la la la la long long li long long long.

Come on!

So since I haven't been able to shower all that love on anyone [and only sprinkle love in small quantities via email so I don't give people the wrong impression], I've turned all that love into creative energy and made you this...

Happy Valentine's Day!

Here are some funny cards. And then some more.

Photo and video by me.

Live by the Sun. Love by the Moon.

It's Valentine's Day.

Do we make a big deal of it?

Or act as if we don't care?

Cynics would say it's just another special day created by Hallmark to make you feel like you should be celebrating something. 

Well, I think everyday is a day to be celebrated.

Life is good.

Love is great.

It's the stuff sweet dreams are made of.

Photos and Typo by me.

It's human to be a searcher.

And we are all looking for that special someone or something in our lives.

But, it's not always easy to solve the puzzle of the human heart and figure out what that actually is.

So,

If you are in love, say it!
In more ways than one.
Celebrate!

Not just today, but everyday.

Life's too short.

If you have a maimed heart,

all you need are a few sutures.

Or maybe some Kintsukuroi.

There is nothing that can't be fixed.

And if you're better off on your own,

close that chapter of your life that you once called love and move on.

Now I'm going to stop being Ms. Preachy Preacherson because I have a beautiful evening ahead of me. With an old black & white romantic movie on a terrace with what I'm hoping will be great food and some stargazing.

Have a great day!

And if you can't get the steps right,

what you can try is getting the look right.

All you need a lot of hairgel and a (de-thorned) rose.

And if it still doesn't work, you'll atleast get some bonus points for effort and can have a few laughs.

For the married

Here's a couple of cool e-cards you can send to make up for not being together.

Looking for love, but with conditions, all the best!

Or better still, make your own Facebook and become a Billionaire without giving 'your Erica Albright' the credit since she also got famous by default. Oops!
