No matter where in the world, love exists. Some celebrations are low-key while others are full-fledged feats. Let’s look at some of these festivities.

NORTH AMERICA:

In both Canada and the United States, school-age children delight in exchanging Valentine cards with their friends. There are classroom parties with Valentine sweets and card exchanges. The students generally make fancy envelopes or boxes in which to deposit their cards. They also take great delight in creating homemade (school-made) Valentines out of red (pink, white) construction paper, other fancy papers, paper doilies (often available in a heart shape), etc. The pupils have as much fun in creating their cards as in receiving them!
Teenagers may have dances or parties while everyone, from adult down, gives flowers, candy, or some other gift to their spouses or significant others. Valentine candy is generally packaged in heart-shaped boxes sometimes decorated with lace and such.

Mexicans celebrate Valentine’s Day but the day goes by another name; “Dia de San Valentin” or “Dia del amor y la armistad” is a day of love and friendship.

EUROPE:

People living in Austria and Germany share with Americans the tradition of bestowing upon their wives presents of roses or chocolates.

In Denmark, Valentine’s Day is celebrated with enthusiasm. Early Valentine cards were transparent and when held up to the light, a picture of a man handing a woman a present would be projected. Another popular gift is to give pressed white flowers known as Snowdrops (one source identifies Snowdrops as candy). A “gaekkebrev” or joking letter, sent by men, has a romantic verse in it but is not signed. Instead, the man signs his name with a number of dots that correlate with the number of letters in his name. If the object of his affection guesses his identity, she receives an Egg on Easter.

In England, Valentine’s Day is celebrated in various ways. On Valentine’s Day Eve, women used to practice rather strange customs. They would take their pillow and pin a bay leaf on each of the four corners and consume eggs where the removed yolks were replaced with salt! (My mouth puckers at the mere thought.) After doing this, they were confident they would dream of their future husbands. In another custom, women would write the names of their lovers on paper. These papers were put on clay balls which were dropped into water. Whichever paper surfaced first would bear the name of their future husband.

In the present, some unmarried women arise from bed before daybreak on Valentine’s Day. They wait by the window, searching for a man to pass by. They feel the first man they see, or someone with a close resemblance to him, will become, within the year, their bridegroom.

Children in England sing special Valentine’s songs and receive candy, fruit, or money. In some regions of England, people bake special Valentine’s buns adorned with caraway seeds, plums, or raisins.

It is traditional to get engaged on Valentine’s Day in Italy. Popular gifts are china baskets and cups that have been filled with Valentine’s candies. Women in Italy practice the same fortune telling custom of watching for their future husbands as is done in England.

In Scotland, Valentine’s Day is traditionally celebrated with a festival where unmarried males and females gather together. Each individual writes their name (or a fictitious one) on a piece of paper which is folded and then put into a hat, one for the women and a separate one for the men.

The ladies draw first and the process is repeated by the men. When the two drawn names do not match, the man is expected to pair up with the lady who had drawn his name. The man presents a gift to the lady on his paper. The women pin the name of their partner on their sleeves or over their hearts. Is this the origin of wearing one’s heart on their sleeve?

In Spain, women give gifts to their husbands; men give flowers to their wives.

ASIA:

In China, Valentine’s Day is not normally celebrated on February 14th. Rather, according to the Chinese calendar. it is celebrated on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month. On this day, lovers crowd the Temple of Matchmaker to pray for love and happiness. Singles can also come to pray. One traditional practice involves girls putting a needle on the surface of the water when the star Vega can be found high in the sky. It is time then for the girl to search for a husband. Also, this day is set aside for girls to make any wish at all.

Modern China puts a new spin on this holiday when hotels give Valentine discounts for couples. Not only is the room rate discounted but also on this day the hotels will not ask and check for marriage certificates. However, any other day of the year Chinese law requires hotels to verify marriage certificates before allowing couples to check in.

In Israel, Valentine’s Day is a popular time for marriage proposals to be made. Gifts are also exchanged.

In Japan, chocolates play an important role. Women give a box of chocolates (“Giri-choko”) as a token of friendship or gratitude to her boss, colleagues, and male friends. Giri-choko” translates as “obligatory chocolate.”

Going a step further, a woman can express her love for that special man in her life by giving small gifts plus a box of chocolates known as “Honmei-choko” or “prospective chocolate.”

In a month’s time, men who have received the gift of chocolate presents the women with a box of chocolates on White Day, March 14th. These chocolates are generally either white chocolate or the candy is wrapped in white boxes. Japanese men often give gifts of lingerie or jewelry to their special women.

In Korea, Valentine’s Day is celebrated much the same as it is in Japan. However, men who were not recipients of chocolates celebrate together on April 14th, or Black Day, whereupon they eat black noodles called “Jajangmyun.”

Thousands of couples celebrate Valentine’s Day in the Philippines by gathering together for the world record of the most couples kissing at one time. This festivity is called Lovapalooza. That’s a lot of chapped lips!

Taiwan observes two Valentine’s Day celebrations, one on February 14th and the other on July 7th. On these days, it is traditional to exchange roses; the color and number of roses determine the message. For example, one rose is “only love,” eleven roses mean “a favorite,” “forever” is the message coming with ninety-nine roses, and one hundred and eight roses signify “marry me.”

In Thailand, Valentine’s Day is celebrated in unique ways. Among these ways is the joining of two elephants as the world’s largest bride and groom. Also included is the world’s largest mass-wedding and the world’s largest underwater wedding.

Love is forever, wherever you look.

One great gift idea for a woman to give to her husband on Valentine’s Day which is often overlooked is a gift of flowers. Flowers are one of the most popular gifts for men to give to women on Valentine’s Day but women often do not even consider giving flowers to men on Valentine’s Day. This is a shame because men receive flowers so rarely, if ever, that they are very likely to really appreciate a simple gift of flowers from their wives on Valentine’s Day.

Another great gift idea for women to give to their husbands on Valentine’s Day is something that really reflects his personal interests or hobbies. For example if your husband is really into following a particular sports team, you might consider buying him tickets to a game or a piece of memorabilia. For a man who has an interest in an activity such as fishing, you might consider buying him something related to his hobby such as a new fishing reel or other accessories for fishing. These types of gifts may not seem overly romantic which is why many women do not consider these gifts at Valentine’s Day but they do show that you really know your husband well and appreciate his interests and hobbies. This is a very important part of being in love with someone and therefore these gifts are perfect for Valentine’s Day.

A homemade dinner is also a great gift idea for women to give to their husbands on Valentine’s Day. Again, most women cook every night so they wouldn’t consider cooking dinner as a Valentine’s Day gift because they think it is too ordinary. However, if they just make a few changes by creating an elegant menu and serving dinner by candlelight it can transform everyday dinners into and excellent gift idea. You may spend a little more time preparing the meal than you normally would spend to cook dinner but both you and your husband will get the benefit of being able to relax and enjoy a fabulous dinner together.

If you are running out of ideas for gifts to give your husband on Valentine’s Day, you might want to consider giving him some clothing as a gift. This really is a good idea because if your husband is like most men, he rarely shops for clothing for himself. In fact he may still be wearing clothing from high school or college. Try buying your husband items he normally wouldn’t purchase for himself such as a stylish pair of jeans or a new pair of shoes. He will likely appreciate the gift because he will now have a few more clothing options but will not have to worry about doing his own shopping.

A final gift which can be a good idea for women to give to their husbands on Valentine’s Day is a gift certificate for a massage. Men often give these types of gifts to women on Valentine’s Day but women typically don’t give these types of gifts to men. Men enjoy being pampered just as much as women do, and your husband will likely appreciate a gift of a gift certificate for a massage. However, you might consider giving him the gift certificate and also scheduling an appointment for him. This is helpful for a couple of reasons. First it helps to make sure your husband doesn’t accidentally forget about the gift. The other reason is that some men may be shy about this type of gift because they have never had a massage before and may be apprehensive. If you make the appointment for them, it will take away some of the anxiety.

Husbands can create a loving environment and successful marriage by showing their wives how much they are loved and cherished. In his ground-breaking book, “Women are from Venus and Men are from Mars,” John Gray outlined the important differences between men and women. One of his key findings is that wives love to be touched and held.

Wives love to be told, in a gentle and humble way, how important they are to their husbands. One of the most touching ways that a husband can show honor and respect to his wife is to write a personal wedding song for her. No matter if a husband has been married for a month or longer than 50 years, he can renew his marriage every day with a personal wedding song.

“What me sing? No way!” most husbands may say. “I can’t carry a tune, let alone do a solo.” While it may seem challenging, a personal wedding song is simply a love poem set to music. I know from personal experience of writing, recording and singing a wedding song to my wife, that it can be done. When I started, I had no guidance, just a gut intuition. All it takes to get started is to know what steps to take and then take the first step. Here are six steps every husband can take to show his wife what a treasure she is.

Step One. Acknowledge Your Wife

Write down five attributes that you love about your wife and admire her for. What five would you choose? Is she, an excellent listener, your best friend? Does she have a friendly and warm smile or a hilarious sense of humor? Does she love to surprise you? If you can list ten or more things, all the better.

Step Two: Write Down the Special Things She Loves

What does your wife treasure? My wife Cheryl loves purple, she loves to hold hands and be hugged, she is very action oriented, she is so thoughtful, she never forgets a family member’s birthday. She loves greeting cards, music, plays, going out to dinner. She is very wise about relationships. A personal wedding song should focus on what is unique and special to your wife and your relationship.

Step Three: Put Yourself and Your Feelings into the Song

I wrote a personal wedding song for my wife after 14 years of marriage. I titled it “Song of Our Marriage.” I wrote a touching refrain that honored her with a title, her role in my life and what that has done for me. The lyrics to the refrain go like this:

“Teacher of wisdom, you’ve shown me God’s face, your strength is gentle and fine as white lace. You listen with heart strings that sing out a song, it’s your love that makes me feel strong.”

Using your list in Step 2, choose several of your wife’s best traits and write down what they mean to you. If you need help with rhyming, you can get a Rhyming Dictionary. Or you can read books of poems or search the Internet through a Google Search to get a starter idea. Make sure to personalize your words, though, so that they come from your heart. You want to be authentic; a cheap copy of someone else passed off as your own may work against you.

Step Four: Make It Simple: Two Verses and a Refrain (more if you can)

Make your personal wedding song easy to sing, but unique to your wife. For example, remember the poems that start, “Roses are red, violets are blue?” You can expand that phrase into a verse, like:

“Roses are red, violets are blue,

I can’t see myself living without you.
You are my wife, the crown of my life,
my life would be empty without you.”

Step Five: Use a Familiar Tune for the Music

Did you know that is acceptable to “borrow” a melody (as long as you don’t sell it or claim it as your own) for your personal wedding song? In fact, if your wife has a special song that she likes, you might learn how to write lyrics that go along with it. If you get serious, you could find a musician or studio to help. When I wrote “Song of Our Marriage,” I figured out the melody by humming it, plunking out the keys on a piano and then finding a studio that produced the accompaniment. Use the Internet to find someone who can help. With downloadable MP3 files, you can actually produce a song on your PC.

Step Six: Sing the Song to Your Wife and Frame the Lyrics

Now comes the most important part – the delivery. Don’t write a personal wedding song and then stick it in your golf bag. Perform it for your wife. Record it. Frame the lyrics and hang the song in your bedroom or kitchen. For “Song of Our Marriage,” I created even a photo album with pictures of my wife in Lilac Park, in Disney World, with her friends, and more in several sections. Each section of the album reflected the verse and refrain from the personal wedding song.

There you have it, six steps to writing a personal wedding song for your wife. It takes work. If I can do it, you can do it too. Go ahead, take a risk. Your wife will be deeply moved by your touching gift and care for her.

Do you find yourself wanting to make everyone happy, even if it means you are not? Have you hidden yourself in order to survive in your family? If you answered “yes” to the above, you are not alone. In my counseling practice, I have discovered numerous people pleasers, also known as adapters. After they overcame their issues and felt free to be their unique selves, I called them “Recovering People Pleasers.”

For example, Judy, a thirty-four year-old mother and wife, came to me because she was depressed. “I feel emotionally strangled by my husband,” she said in an angry tone.

Knowing that men and women often marry people like their mothers or fathers, I said, “Judy, go back to the time you felt that way. To her surprise, she regressed back to when she was two-years-old and her parents were yelling at her. She was crying and felt devastated. The decision she made from that experience was, “I have to please them or I will not be safe and loved.”

Then I asked Judy to go inside of her body and find the little girl that she locked up in order to survive in her family. She found little Judy in her heart, all curled up in a fetal position. I encouraged Judy to tell her little girl, “I am an adult now. It is safe to come out and be who you are. I love you. I will take care of you and protect you.” I guided Judy to imagine that she was taking little Judy to her home where she presently lived, to create a special room for the two-year-old, and then to say to the toddler, “This is your room from now on. We will walk life together hand in hand. It is safe to be who we are and we are loved.”

Judy took a deep breath of relief and felt much lighter and happier. She then realized that she chose a man who would fit her belief. I encouraged Judy to express to her husband in a loving way how she felt and what she wanted. I also recommended that she practice win-win problem solving so that they both felt empowered.

Can you relate to Judy’s story? Are you ready to be who you are and express your truth in a positive, loving way? When you don’t, you resent the people around you whom you allow to control you. In a sense, you become a puppet and give them the power to pull your strings. Then you are likely to be passive aggressive and get back at them in deceptive ways.

For example, you may make excuses to avoid being physically intimate, get sick, arrive late, be sarcastic, burn their dinner, or avoid spending time with them. Those negative behaviors are hurtful to them, you, and the relationship. This includes all forms of relationships, including lovers, children, parents, bosses, and friends.

I encourage you to resolve your fears of being who you are so that you can be happy, healthy, and loved. Then you can also be a Recovering People Pleaser.

Years ago my wife and I participated in an organization called “Marriage Encounter,” which emphasized communication techniques. I’ve always liked its motto: “Making Good Marriages Even Better!”

That’s what I hope to emphasize for you today. It’s time to make your good relationship even better!

And how do I suggest you do that? If you have a relationship that is doing pretty good and doesn’t really need any help, then I want you to go to Marriage Counseling!

You may think that counseling is only for problems, but that’s not so. People without all those nasty problems can use the process to create far better lives than they ever imagined.

I so love it when a couple comes to me just to grow. I’ll admit that this is usually not the case. It usually takes pain to get people through my office door. But, occasionally, couples come to me just to make their good relationship even better. What fun that is!

So, what does a couple do in therapy if they have no problems to work on? There are SO many things we can do:

-Develop even more sophisticated communication abilities
-Use psychological instruments (tests) to determin differences, simularities, and how to complement each other’s personality gifts
-Seek spiritual growth together
-Take time out from the busy-ness of life and become clear on what your common goals are and how you want to get there
-Strategize how you will handle holiday get-togethers with in-laws and other relatives that are not that pleasant to be with

And this is just the beginning. There is so much we can do to improve these marvelous relationships we’ve been given.

Is it worth the cost? I think of it in terms of the old question at the end of life: Will you wish you had spent more time at work, or more time on your family and marriage?

For most of us, the answer is clear. There is nothing in the end more important than our relationships to the people we treasure.

The cost of taking yourselves to a counselor and working on life together is really nothing compared to the lifetime of joy and wonder that is possible with your partner.

The grocery bill, the car payments, the mortgage, the clothes for the kids and the thousands of other things we feel we must spend our money on will all argue against this couple counseling opportunity.

However, I suggest that it is not an issue of whether you can afford it, but whether you can afford to not do it. Is your relationship really good enough for you, or do you wonder if there is more?

Go for it! Grab all the love and togetherness you can get! And use a counselor to help you see what you may be missing.

Ours is a wonderful generation for many reasons, but most of all, it’s a generation of acceptance and the celebration of diversity. Today, more than ever before, people of all races and origins can share neighborhoods, workplaces, classrooms and homes without bias. We can freely share our ideas and learn more about other cultures. Ours is a more harmonious world and every day, we’re becoming increasingly tolerant of the cultural diversity that exists all around us.

Every couple involved in a romantic union will face challenges from time to time, but mixed race couples can encounter particularly challenging issues. Facing these challenges and finding solutions will ultimately enable the couple to make their relationship even stronger. The confidence to endure the strongest conflicts is made possible by sharing the personal strength found in each other.

An interracial relationship is the joining together of two people from different cultural backgrounds. If you are in an interracial or mixed-raced relationship, your background may very different from that of your partner. As the relationship flourishes, both you and your partner will be eager to share ideas and ideals, and involve each other in your unique cultural traditions.

You will be experiencing new traditions and meeting new people. This is where anxiety can develop and the potential for conflict can arise. It’s always exciting to meet your partner’s family for the first time, but when your knowledge of their language or lifestyle is limited, you may find yourself feeling uncomfortable, or concerned about whether they will accept you into the family.

The following suggestions can help you to be more confident when meeting people of diverse backgrounds:

1. Use clear and friendly communications. Try your best to communicate clearly, despite any language barrier. Your friendly tone and expressions will speak volumes. Express your happiness at meeting the people who raised your true love. Your efforts to communicate will solidify the bond between you and your partner.

2. Learn more about the other culture. Try to become more involved in your partner’s life by learning more about his or her culture and traditions. Show your interest but don’t appear to be phony or overbearing.

3. Focus on your similarities. In meeting and talking to new people, you’ll always find similarities, regardless of ethnicity or culture. Keep an open mind and don’t be afraid to share your interests and opinions. You may find that you’re a lot more alike than you initially thought. The fact that you are ethnically or culturally different should not affect your ability to connect. You and your partner have already proven that different races can come together beautifully. It’s true that mixed race couples can face unique challenges, but it’s certainly no reason to give up too easily. It takes effort to make any relationship last.

4. Define the kind of relationship you want and need. If this union offers everything you need, then remind yourself that it’s worth maintaining. Be happy and true to yourself, and to your partner.

5. Remain confident in your decision to pursue an interracial relationship. When you fell in love, you felt invincible. Keep the feeling alive and your relationship will stay strong, despite anyone else’s opinions.

6. Don’t let other people’s opinions bring you down. Negative comments can be hard to deal with, especially when they come from people who are important to you. Remember that the happiness of you and your partner is all that matters.

7. Be happy. Starting a new relationship should be the happiest time of your lives. You are making plans and sharing dreams of what your future will hold. Do not let other people control your happiness.

8. Be content and live freely. This is the most important fact of life, even if you are not in a relationship at all. If you are involved in an interracial relationship, remember that you live in a free country and have the right to live your life as you choose. Making the decision to be with the person you love will give you all the power in the world.

9. Share your happiness with your friends and family. The people who love you will love your partner as well. If you feel as though you should hide your relationship, then you have bigger issues to deal with. Despite any cultural differences that may come in to play, the ultimate happiness of you and your partner should always be your number one concern.

10. Let your heart lead you. Don’t ruin your relationship by overanalyzing it. If you truly love your partner, then go ahead and love him or her freely and without doubt. We rarely get a second chance at love, so follow your heart.

11. Keep the lines of communication open. Talk to your partner about what makes your relationship strong, and about your fears. This will tell your partner that he or she is loved unconditionally and it will create a closer bond between you. Encourage your partner to open up and discuss his or her feelings with hesitation.

Love is the most wonderful gift that you can give or receive. If you have found someone truly special that you can share this magical emotion with, then don’t let anyone or anything stand in your way. Everyone is unique; it’s what makes this world such a wonderful place to be. Prove to yourself and your partner that you are truly and happily in love, and the rest of your world will be happy for you.

Essayist Flora Murkett writes for a variety of popular Internet magazines, on family life and home and family themes.

You might feel that “something is wrong” or something hurts or doesn’t feel right, but you can’t exactly put your finger on it.

It can frequently be helpful to have something like a “danger signs” chart:

1. You actually have started to dread coming home to your partner
2. You cringe when they talk to you because you predict it’s always going to turn out painfully
3. There are so few things you can happily talk about by now that they could all fit in a thimble
4. The things you used to find appealing or charming about your spouse you now find irritating or even worse (even disgusting)
5. The things you used to do together that you thought were fun you either don’t even do anymore or they really aren’t fun anymore — maybe it even hurts to do those things again
6. You feel your spouse doesn’t even really like you anymore, or maybe even hates you
7. You are tempted to cheat, divorce, lie or misbehave in ways that you don’t feel proud of and you just feel devastated it’s come to this
8. You look at your spouse almost as an opponent or even an enemy when it comes to parenting, sex, finances or other important decisions.
9. You criticize or even humiliate your spouse (or they do to you) in public, with friends or at parties or get-togethers.
10. You develop a cynical, pessimistic attitude about whether anyone has a great marriage or if there is even such a thing or if other people have them; and look around you and see bad marriages (you have a filter against seeing the great ones)
11. You just have an empty dark, hollow feeling inside, not anything in particular, that your marriage is not what you expected in life; you are deep down, disappointed in marriage
12. What you hoped for, prayed for and dreamed about being married and being with your soulmate seems to have completely died.

How Many Of These Danger Signs Did You Check Off? 3 or more?

If you have discovered you can identify at least three of these “danger signs,” your marriage either is or soon will be in serious trouble!

How do I know that? Because these are the things that people try to “blow off” and manage without addressing them… and that end up creating far more serious problems because of their cumulative power.

Remember, a whole mountain is eroded over time by wind and a trickle of water. Deep canyons are formed over the years by a continuous erosion. Your marriage has the same possibility of erosion if you don’t address the core issues.

If So, I highly recommend that you get to work on your marriage!

The key is not to rush them. You cannot make anyone commit to you.

1) Timing

You will just have to work and put the effort to giving them reasons to commit. The first thing that makes men commit is time. Once you put in some time in a relationship, the man will be able to feel more comfortable in the relationship and with his own feelings.

Sometimes you cannot rush love and you cannot rush a man into a commitment. Now if it has been years, it is clear that a commit is not in the future and you may need to re-evaluate the relationship, however, they will take this in stages where they will see you exclusively and then say that they love you, and then eventually you will get the ring that you have been waiting for.

The thing is that it could take a few years (one or two) to get the ring, but it is months before that count. You will begin to talk to each other.

2) Space

Secondly, you will want to think about giving space. It is very important that you give your mate space. You will need to give them space because you are not their sole contact.

There are going to be times where you need to be with the girls too. Take the time to set a day aside so that you both can have some time to yourself. It is space that makes the love grow in a relationship.

3) Friendship

Friendship is very important to men. You want to make it clear that you can be friends in the marriage. You can share a life together but at the same time it is important to make sure that you are taking the time to be friends and talking about things that are important.

You want to be able to spend time together and do the fun things that you both like to do. This will make it easier for you to have a great friendship as well as get him to commit to you.

4) Feelings

The fourth thing that makes a man want to commit is the feelings that they have inside for you. When a guy is looking for a girl to settle down with, he will know whether she is THE ONE for him because he will feel the love about her coming out.

He will know automatically that he wants to spend the rest of his life with her because of the feelings that he has when he is near her. It is going to be a great feeling and one that makes his heart happy.

5) Communication

Communication is going to be the fifth reason he wants to commit to a girl. Being able to talk to your partner is one thing that will help get the relationship off the ground.

You will want to make sure that you are both speaking about the things that are most important to you. When a man feels comfortable talking to his mate, this will be a good indication that things are going the way that they should. They will feel better and want to commit to each other better.

6) Bonding

Sharing a bond is something that a man and woman have to do together as well. Having a special bond between a man and a woman is going to be a big factor when a man is trying to decide if he should commit to her or not.

The way that he feels about her and the way that they get along will be a great factor in the way that the relationship goes. Having something in common and getting to know each other better is what a relationship is all about. Having that one special bond is going to make all the difference when it comes time for him to commit to a woman that he loves so much.

7) Laughter is the best medicine!

Everyone wants to have fun in his or her relationship. We all want to have some good laughs and have a good time doing the things that make us all happy. We want to make sure that we are keeping an open mind to having fun.

Make sure that you are doing things that you both like and that you can do together. Making memories and having fun is something that we all want to have in our life, so you can be sure that your man loves to be around someone who is cheerful and merry! It is going to make things a lot easier to get along with each other and get him to commit to you for sure.
