I Don’t Do Love Letters Anymore

In today’s fast paced society, it seems as if no one has time to express love in written form. We are all too hooked up to social media and other distractions like text messaging that do not allow room for genuine creativity. When was the last time you either wrote a love letter to someone or you received one? Listen, a love letter is the most romantic thing you can give to your beloved. Why? Because to pen a letter shows that you truly do care for them. It tells them you took time out of your busy schedule to sit down and truly “think” about you – about how you make them feel. To express love through pen is the ultimate gift, and as the old poets knew, to pen love makes it eternal. The words do not have to be fancy or clever. What makes a love letter powerful is that it is a memorable keepsake. Someone remembered you today, and the love letter is proof.

We want to encourage you today to set aside a few moments today to write your beloved a small note of love. Just say what is in your heart, not what you think they want to hear or what sounds good. If it’s real, true love, the words will be genuine and that feeling will jump off the page at your beloved. And who knows how that feeling will be reciprocated! So, with in mind, here’s a quaint little poem for your amusement and perhaps of encouragement.

I Don’t Do Love Letters Anymore

I don’t do love letters anymore
There’s no one that I care that much for
It’s very much ashame, you see
That I no longer fill someone’s heart with glee

There’s no inspiration
No heart-felt titillation
For, my heart, it fills with sadness
On the edge of sheer madness

I don’t do love letters anymore
I have not the heart to explore
For a love that once gave inspiration
Was only a figment of my imagination.

Made in Love, to LOVE

One of the greatest gifts given to us by the divine is the knowledge that we were made in love, to LOVE. Now, I am talking more than just romantic or sexual love. Opening our hearts to see that we are all interconnected in our same desire to be a part of something bigger than ourselves is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity. It’s not just about YOU! Living is loving. And this requires us to step outside of our ego and embrace the most tenderest of emotions/actions: giving love.

Be it a hug, a warm, gentle smile or a word of encouragement, step out of your own life story today and BE love. Someone needs to know that they do matter, that they are alive and that love is beautiful – even when offered by a stranger.

Love Letter for Hire sends you #lightlovejoy today – everyday. Visit us at www.loveletterforhire.yolasite.com and let us help you bring LOVE back into your life.

Creating Romance on an Ice-Cream Budget

So, the economy has taken its toll on many households and relationships, but that does not mean that romance should suffer. Here are five budget-friendly romance adventures that can help keep the flame of love and desire burning bright in your home as you contiue to thrive and survive during these tough economic times.

5. Write your partner a personalized love letter or love note. Although cards can be beautiful, a handwritten note from you says 100 times more about your feelings for your partner. This is an unforgettable act and a romantic gesture guaranteed to last a lifetime in the heart of your beloved. It is also inexpensive as all you need is a pretty piece of stationary and matching envelope.

4. A picnic at a local park. Get really creative with this adventure. Pack the picnic basket with your beloved’s favorite foods/desserts or create a special meal which signifies your love for him/her. For examples, sweet potatoes could represent your beloved’s big heart. There are catering companies who can create these dishes for you, but beware as caterers can be costly. Either way, try not to spend more than your budget will allow. $50-$75 or less should be good for the appetizer, entree, dessert and drinks (plates and utensils are also included).

3. Create a “love” CD; download you and your mates favorite love songs on a CD and title it “Just Because.” Put the CD in your mate’s CD player in their car or on their Ipod with a note attached listing the names of the songs. You can go even further by briefly saying what memory or feeling each song respresents for your relationship. Now, every time he/she plays the CD, it will remind them of you and good feelings lead to hot things! And how much does this romance adventure cost? If done right, zero!

2. Roller or Ice Skate the night away! That’s right! Check with your local roller rink and find out when is couple’s night, or get even more bold, disco night, and go! When we were kids, the roller rink was the place to be seen with your love interest or to get their attention. Remember trying to show off your hottest move on skates? (in my case, only to fall flat on my butt in utter embarassment) This is not only fun, but a great way to get fit together as skating is an aerobic act, and if your blood is pumping from all of that action, wait until you get home! Skates and food might total $30 or less.

1. The Ice Cream Parlor. Here in Richmond, VA, we have a few old -fashioned ice cream parlors where they not only serve homemade ice cream at the counter, but candy and other sweet treats. How romantic to sit down and share a malt or Mint ice cream cone all for under $20. After eating your ice cream, take a walk around the local park (hopefully, it has a lake or pond). This is quite an experience to share.

Each of these romantic adventures share not just romance, but communication opportunities abound. Most relationships end because of lack of communication; but, these are a few options to help you keep that line open and to have fun on an ice cream budget as well.

Want to Get High? Read a Love Letter!

I have written love letters all of my life: to my parents, grandparents, boyfriends, my one True love, and my children.  It is the greatest way to truly express your true inner heart and soul.  Writing your feelings and sharing them with the ones that make you feel this way is one of the greatest gifts we can give one another.  When the people you care about receive and read these “Love Letters,” it triggers the release of feel-good endorphins in our brains. That’s the serotonin that gives us that unbelievable high we get when we run or dance or do other things we truly love.  And yes, it triggers the same response that sets off our physical intimacy for our partners.

So why wouldn’t you want to give a “Love Letter”? In life, we have so many opportunities to show how we care and many times, sadly, we let them just pass us by without notice. Writing soothes the soul and imbeds into the paper the memories we make FOREVER.  It is the one written gift that keeps giving over and over each time it is read: Each time it is passed down to the next generation leaving the legacy of the” Love Letter.”  Don’t you want to capture and savor every great loving moment in your life by writing it down so that you can relive being in that moment over and over again?

I feel that writing love letters is the one of the best ways to capture and keep the memories alive.  When you write to “him” about the last time he made love to you and you describe every detail with such emotion and sensuality, you know as he reads it, he is feeling you and reliving the moment again as well. 

When you write to “her” about the special weekend you spent together and how very beautiful and sexy she looked in her little black dress celebrating the 15^th anniversary of your love, and how that night lead to one of the most incredible nights of your life together, it sends the endorphins through the roof.

Love is the only gift we can really give to one another; it has no cost. It is not material. It is given freely and willingly because it is an emotional choice. I encourage you today to choose the “Love Letter” to show your unconditional love and create a lasting memory that will keep your loved one high for all seasons.

Love is a Powerful Thing!

Ooh! Love is a powerful thing. It can bring a man to his knees, destroy empires or even define a generation. This week, we want to continue our showcase of famous love letters by some very famous people to show that “love” is not just a thing for the weak or overly emotional. As Shakespeare once said in Sonnet 116, “It is an ever-fixed mark/That looks on Tempest and is never shaken.”

This love letter from Victor Hugo is full of two things we love about life and love: passion and desire.

Victor Hugo:

“My adorable and adored

I have been asking myself every moment if such happiness is not a dream.

It seems to me that what I feel is not of earth. I cannot yet comprehend this cloudless heaven.

My whole soul is yours.

My Adele, why is there no word for this but joy? Is it because there is no power in human speech to express such happiness?sometimes I tremble lest I should suddenly awaken from this dream divine.

Oh, now you are mine! At last you are mine! Soon — in a few months, perhaps, my angel will sleep in my arms, will awaken in my arms, will live there.

All your thoughts at all moments, all your looks will be for me; all my thoughts, all my moments, all my looks, will be for you!

Adieu, my angel, my beloved Adele! Adieu!

Still I am far from you, but I can dream of you.

Soon perhaps you will be at my side.

Adieu; pardon the delirium of your husband who embraces you, and who adores you, both for this life and another.”
