In the classic movie – Love Story
one of the worst lines ever uttered
and proclaimed to be romantic:
~ Love means never having to say you’re sorry ~
excuse me, huh?
in what world
is that ok?
If you love me
and you hurt me
You need to be sorry
You need to mean it
That’s what love is
Care for me
Respect me
and my feelings
Think before you
speak
And definitely,
most assuredly, most respectfully, most humbly, most lovingly
say when you are sorry.

oh, ha ha ha ha
you are a jerk
I must hate you now
oh, ha ha ha ha
I am so naive
and I seem so strong
oh, ha ha ha ha
you act a fool
and I’m suddenly weak
oh, ha ha ha ha
I forgive your silly ways
how did I think you were a jerk?
ooh, la la
we are suddenly in love
and the world is perfect.
Relationships take real work, not an easy-bake oven.

You cannot have me at hello.
I have more value
I deserve more respect
I respect myself
far too much
To allow your cute face and sweet talk
to make me forget my worth.
You cannot have me at hello.

Today kicks off our special February focus!
Remember today, we don’t need a person to “complete” me –
no matter what the romantic comedies say.
You know,
that’s actually a lot of pressure to put on someone else
and realistically,
no one would be able to do it
you + me ≠ a complete me
you + me = a complete us
whatever that may be

February is all about love, isn’t it? Whether you are a hopeless romantic or believe Valentine’s day is a Hallmark holiday, thoughts of love fill the air during the month.
For anyone who struggles with seeing their own value, February can be a difficult month. Romantic movies lead us to believe that we need someone to “Complete Me.”
So, for this month of love, I am going to post photos and messages daily on the Know My Worth blog and Facebook page to remind ourselves “I AM COMPLETE.” We are already whole, and no man, woman, or child can complete us. My challenge to you this next month is to remember it.
Invite your friends! I do hope you join in with me and the Know My Worth community on the blog or Facebook page, sharing your thoughts and encouragements. Much love to you~
