I love you

Happy Valentine’s Day!
During the recent Eight Words Of Love sweepstakes, people were asked  to tell us eight words that best describe love. The entries were amazing, while some words were surprising (even shocking), others were very similar and sweet.
Here are the 150 most common words that describe love, in a word cloud.

The top 25 words (1 being the most popular) that describe love are:

1. heart
2. family
3. caring
4. happiness
5. forever
6. happy
7. trust
8. passion
9. romance
10. sweet
11. kiss
12. love
13. hugs
14. warm
15. fun
16. kisses
17. joy
18. sex
19. friendship
20. marriage
21. chocolate
22. husband
23. wife
24. forever
25. caring

Maybe our words of love should be pronouns ( names of those we love). Who would you add to the list?

Why not send them a floral bouquet to say " I love you."

It's in the stars!

 

 

Ever wonder how your gift giving stack up against the rich and famous?

 

David and Courtenay

We all have our thing. Some of us just love antiques. Some of us love a carnival. David Arquette got the best of both worlds from former wife Courtenay Cox when she gifted him an antique carousel horse for Valentine's Day before they split. They are said to be valued at up to $45,000.

                                                        Brad and Jolene

Brad must really love olives, because in 2010 Angelina got him his own unlimited supply in the form of an olive tree. Brad's 200-year-old tree cost $30,000 and was purchased for planting at their French chateau.

 

                                                     Howard and Beth

Even Howard Stern is not immune to Cupid's bow. His divorce didn't sour him on love, because the shock jock pulled the ultimate cliche with a Valentine's Day engagement to Beth Ostrosky in 2007. Her bling consisted of a 5.2-carat emerald-cut ring.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don't Forget Valentine's Day

 

 

Romantic love lasts just over a year, perhaps because the brain cannot eternally maintain a revved-up state of romantic bliss. As romantic love wanes, attachment love, a more stable love, sets in.

New research suggests that passionate love does not always decline over time. In addition to exhibiting intense activity in the ventral tegmental area of the brain similar to those in the early stages of love, brain scans also show activity in the ventral pallidum, a region associated with feelings of long-term attachment, and in the raphe nucleus, which is responsible for higher serotonin levels, which lead to calmness and less obsession.

                 In other words: being in love makes us feel good!

Love is not necessarily a guarantee that a marriage will last. Other factors include a couple’s age (a husband who is nine or more years older than his wife or who marries before the age of 24 is more likely to divorce), those who are in their second or third marriage, those who had a child before marriage, and finances.

      What ever type of love you have, do not forget to celebrate with flowers from the Flower Nook.
