Nice gesture, my friend! I firmly believe that small acts are crucial and make a difference. I don't disregard holidays like Valentine's Day, but I never wait for occasions to show a sweet gesture to my beloved Reny.
It's a great habit to wake up early, as you know, I do it too. My breakfasts, for now, are poor and low in calories... Today, for example, I had a glass of rice drink and two slices of biscuits with a bit of orange marmalade. The saddest part of it all... no Vegemite!😭
We don't do Valentine's Day stuff, the day goes by unremarkably other than anything we might have usually done on the day of the week. It's a meaningless day designed for commercial purposes and we prefer to be more connected though daily acts and thoughts. That's not to say it's not a valid day for some. I know people who use Valentine's Day as their only romantic gesture all year. (Not my style, but that's how it goes for some.)
No Vegemite huh? That's not good. Hopefully the process is having an effect though, that's what really counts.
I agree that every day is a good day to dedicate to love; I believe that many small gestures are worth more than one big gesture, even if it's done in a single day.
Yes, going without Vegemite is a big sacrifice, but it's bearing fruit—I've already lost 4 kilograms!💪💪💪
That's a good result and will probably motivate you to keep pushing forward.
