Let me explain
At any age the victory of love consumes much time and energy: causing a natural intoxication and excitement.
So what is love? 
Let&#8217;s discuss four types of love.

<p><font size="2"><strong>Let me explain</strong></font></p>
<p><font size="2">At any age the victory of <strong>love</strong> consumes much time and energy: causing a natural intoxication and excitement.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">So what is <strong>love</strong>? </font></p>
<p><font size="2">Let&#8217;s discuss four types of <strong>love</strong>.</font></p>
<p><font size="2"><strong>Four types of love</strong></font><font size="2"> </font></p>
<p><font size="2"><strong>1</strong>. <strong>Love</strong> of God (whoever your God happen to be)</font><font size="2"> </font></p>
<p><font size="2"><strong>Love</strong> of God can cause a natural intoxication and excitement.</font></p>
<p><font size="2"><strong>2</strong>. <strong>Love</strong> of others.</font></p>
<p><font size="2"><strong>Loving</strong> others although noble can be exhausting if you neglect yourself.</font></p>
<p><font size="2"> </font><font size="2"><strong>3</strong>. <strong>Love</strong> of self.</font></p>
<p><font size="2" /><font size="2"><strong>Love</strong> of self is very difficult because you have been taught at an early age to love others first.</font><font size="2" /><font size="2" /><font size="2"> </p>
<p></font><font size="2" /><font size="2"> </font><font size="2" /><font size="2"><strong>4</strong>. <strong>Love</strong> of material things.</font><font size="2" /><font size="2"></font><font size="2"><font size="2" /></font><font size="2"><strong>Love</strong> of material things although necessary may force you to get caught in the trap of greed. The more you have the more you want. Hoping that acquiring material assets will provide (so call) happiness and fulfillment.</font><font size="2"><strong>So on what do you focus?</strong> </p>
<p><strong>Focus</strong></p>
<p>We will <strong>focus</strong> on the desire to accumulate material things at any expense.</p>
<p><strong>Material things </strong></p>
<p>Because of the influence of the media and advertising <strong>Valentines Day</strong> is generally perceived to be about <strong>flowers</strong> and <strong>chocolates.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Sweet smell and  taste</strong></p>
<p><strong>1</strong>. What happen when the fresh scent of <strong>flowers</strong> fade away? Then you return to the daily <strong>stressful situations</strong> of the &#8220;same old same old.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>2</strong>. What happens when the sweet taste of <strong>chocolates</strong> turn sour? Then you&#8217;re no longer able to stay focused and return to the &#8220;same old same old.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>So what is the moral of the story?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Valentines Day </strong>is supposed to be about <strong>love</strong>. However, the experience of <strong>stress relief</strong> on <strong>Valentines Day</strong> seems to be clouded in <strong>flowers</strong> and <strong>chocolates</strong></p>
<p>The celebration of <strong>Valentines Day</strong> (LOVE) should be a 365 day affair, long after and the fresh scent of <strong>flowers</strong> and the sweet taste of <strong>chocolates</strong> have been overcome by daily <strong>stressful situations.</strong></p>
