. . . is NOW. Why? I am busy today. Can I show it tomorrow? Or on special occassions since it's more meaningful.
I have projects to finish. Deadlines are just around the corner. My boss is calling me to do something.
To love is to sacrifice. I am working so hard. It's a sacrifice I do every day for my family.
To love is to give. I give all my earnings and possible materials my family needs.
What about you my friends? Are you the person I have discussed above. Are we really showing love this way? Let's be honest and practical, these are the ways we show love. Life is hard and we always work, work, work because we have to!

My friend, tomorrow is Valentine's Day and it only comes once a year. So take a break and have some nice romantic dinner with you special someone.
I have already told my husband that tomorrow, we will be having dinner by ourselves only. As to where will that be, maybe somewhere where it's Eat all You Can!

You are a very thoughtful and loving wife. I am not so good at doing it in a way or the other. I mean, my timing is awful. Well, the day is long. I still have time to prepare. Thanks again! @leateagee (3667)

Agree. Yes, I do it from time to time but maybe I'll be a nagger or you know there isn't a surprise because I gave the idea. A little dictator.

Well, if you see your husband not that romantic, you have to take the initiative to tell him of your plans on occasions. That way, you will more or less know what he wants to do instead to make it more memorable.

Love now, any time, not just when you feel happy. Show and share.

Individual perception for everything. I do not believe that working hard for family is any kind of sacrifices.
My family does not depend upon me so I buy some necessary things to my home and rest money I spend on having party with friends and small part donate for social development purpose.
I love working 24 hours because after having my paycheck job I do work for social development and some time work on Internet.

That is so good of you that you share for social development. Spend some time with your family not just spending it outside or social purposes.

Work is important because that is where we get the living the we provide for the family. However it is nonsense, if we don't spend time for our loved ones. It's useless if we keep giving them material things yet we lack giving them time and attention, the time that you spend on something means or is as equal with your love to it. I mean if you spend so much time at work it means you love your work more than anything else. That's just my opinion.

I agree with your opinion. Though we need spend some time for the family, we also need to work. We just need to balance our time with work and family.

i am a chinese boy,but i am similar to you.
in china , if you want to love or marry to a girl , many things are needed , for example , apartment(very expensive in china) and car is needed.
we have nothing now , i have no choice , i have to work hard, i have to time and capital to love.
it is really a little sad

i think there are different ways to show love. i am sure your family loves you and knows you love them. they also know that it is crunch time and you have deadline. they are probably more supportive of you than you think. don't be so hard on yourself.

Thank you so much. They are very supportive. I just observe that there are times that scenario happens in my life and very common to most. Thanks for the encouragement.

There should be no specific time and place to be able to show how much you love your family. And you have clearly gave a picture-perfect description of how one does give her all for the love of her family.

Oh, that's a very nice comment. Thanks. I will remember and keep in my heart that "there is no specific time and place to show love."

People have different ways to show love. Everyday we met people and we show to them our different kinds of love.. it is not only today were is the best time to give love.. but anytime you can give love.
To love is to sacrifice. many of us deals with it.. they are working too hard for the sake of others.
To love is to give. sharing is not a bad thing, save a bit for yourself also.
