Love

This weekend is Valentine’s Day, the annual reminder that love exists... and apparently thrives on chocolate and strategic dinner reservations. Many opinions are voiced around this holiday, ranging from silly fun and fulfilled hopes to unmet expectations or just plain indifference..

But truly and thankfully, love is bigger than a single square on the calendar. It’s larger than a flower bouquet on Saturday, and more about how we move through the world the other 364 days. Heart first, generous with our attention, thoughtful with our words and resources. When you stop to consider what love truly means, how it feels, and its true impact beyond the superficial, one day of consideration feels wildly inadequate.

Still, in honor of the occasion, and because our community manager does love a holiday, we've gathered a few Valentine-themed images. Hearts hiding in unexpected places, enthusiastic pets, love notes from nature, simple joy, and deeply human connection. This community does a wonderful job capturing love in all its forms.

Whether you celebrate wholeheartedly or view it as one big Hallmark conspiracy, we hope this collection sparks something sweet.

Share some love this weekend. Stay genuine and don’t overthink it.
