This blog entry is being written and posted on February 13th<\/sup>, the day before Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I would guess that the majority of people that read the title of the post might think that the post is about Valentine\u2019s Day. But it isn\u2019t. It\u2019s about the day before!<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Before posting images on social media I check with several websites to learn if those particular days are holidays or if they have a special meaning. One of the sites that I visit lists more than one holiday and they will tell if it\u2019s National (only celebrated in the US) or if it a World Day (a holiday celebrated worldwide).<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When I was scheduling this week\u2019s images I noticed that February 13th<\/sup> not only had several special days or holidays listed but many of them had much to do about love.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For example, today is Galentine\u2019s Day (celebrate your girlfriends), Black Love Day, Dream Your Sweet Day (your sweetheart), Giving Hearts Day, International Natural Day (self-love), Kiss Day, National Wingman Day and Self-Love Day.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Whew! That\u2019s a \u201clota love\u201d themes for one day!<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Did you know any of these special days existed?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Will you be celebrating any of these special days today?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
