Valentine’s Day is next week. Are you prepared? Have you purchased flowers? Made reservations? Do you have a Hallmark card in hand? Have you memorized a poem? Does it feel like there is an extensive list just to get ready for February 14 or to express love in general?

We are missing the mark on expressions of love and what we truly value. The most precious thing we can give to those we love is time. We can always purchase another gift or buy another card, but the time we intentionally spend with those we adore is priceless.

Do not miss an opportunity to give those you love the greatest gift you can: your time. After all, life is but a vapor.
