February, can never be one of the most special of the twelve months without the highly anticipated day, “Valentine’s”. In every calendar of the year, diverse people across the globe mark 14th of February as Valentine’s Day, used to express love for people and with people who mean a lot to them.
Showing love on Valentine’s day has been normalized but in this article, I am focusing on bringing in the aspect of ‘speciality’ to catalyse your valentine’s day with some ‘random acts of kindness’.
What majority of people don’t understand, is that certain unprompted, voluntary action can be done not only to strangers but to the people that mean the world to you as well. These actions should typically be done without expecting anything in return as they only aim to spread positivity among your loved one(s).

Those having been noted, I now challenge you to do the following to your loved one(s) on Valentine’s Day:
Drop a Generous Tip to Them
You may be having very shallow pockets to afford those expensive red roses, on that date but don’t allow your ‘broke’ status to deny you a chance to put a smile on your loved one'(s) face(s). Go ahead, and draft that generous tip with a kind note and drop it to them at a place that would likely Surprise them.
Do Handwritten Notes
Who said texting on phones with those emojis sound sweeter? In fact, get back to the olden days, write a letter or a card to them expressing your gratitude, admiration for them and don’t let your ink run out before you can tell them how much their presence in your life compares to nothing under the sun. The handwritten notes give that personal touches with them, a feeling that SMS can’t provide.
Do those Dinner Dates
Isn’t it fun to eat out together? Well, check in into some nearby hotels you can afford and do your best meals together. It won’t really bear much impact if you don’t utilize such opportunities heaping compliments to them and making them feel freshly admired. A simple “I love your ‘Kaunda’ outfit, Auma!” or “You have a great smile beautiful chubby bae!😘” can make someone feel special.
Done carefully well, you may have those prolonged movie-nights and do your niceties on the green sofas. So make every step standout.
Leave a Treat or Note for Delivery
Is this the day you are going to do shoppings for your loved one(s)? If so, pack all your shoppings in a nicely wrapped bag. Inside the shoppings, leave a handwritten note or card, thanking them for their hard work and those times they created just to be with you, even on their off days. This will surely show how much you appreciate every moment you shared together.
Surprise Them with Goods or Flowers
Unfortunately, this is the part most of us would be waiting for, failure to which, the love would turn sour. Go extra mile, purchase those valuable gifts and reward them. Give as much as the receiver does but this depends on how much you both value each other. So have a wonderful February and ‘Make Life Special’!
