Let’s be real—the world is BEYOND exhausting right now. Some days it feels like joy is out of stock and love is only available via backorder. But here at Neon Rainbow Creatives, we refuse to let the chaos win. (At least not without it being covered in glitter.)
February isn’t just for romance—it’s a whole damn season of love. And not just the mushy, candlelit, “I’d die for you” kind. We’re talking self-love, bestie love, queer love, ride-or-die love, and the kind of love that says ‘I got you’ even when words fail.
For some of us, this February isn’t about celebrating love—it’s about rebuilding after it fell apart. If you’re going through a breakup, a divorce, or just feeling like love let you down, let me say this loud and clear: Your story isn’t over. You are still worthy of love—especially your own.
So how do we hold onto love and joy when the world is doing its absolute most? We crank the volume up louder than the noise.

Step 1: Romanticize Your Own Life (Even If You’re Just Trying to Keep It Together)
Here’s the thing—you deserve main character energy. Even if your current storyline involves aggressively side-eyeing your bank account or giving dating apps one last chance (again). Love isn’t just something we receive—it’s something we create.
🕯️ Light the candles—even if it’s just for you.
💌 Write yourself a love note (with a card from Loveline of course!). No, seriously. Sign it with XOXO like you’re starring in your own rom-com.
💐 Buy the flowers. Especially if nobody else will.
If your heart is heavy, if you’re feeling unlovable or lost, let me remind you: The person you need most right now? They’re already with you. Take care of them.

Step 2: Your Besties Deserve Their Own Love Songs
**Inspired by and dedicated to my girl tribe's undying support and shenanigans!💋
Galentine’s? We love. Chosen family? Essential. This month, don’t just assume your people know you love them—tell them, show them, write it down.
💌 Send your best friend a love note. Bonus points if it’s mildly unhinged. (“You’re the only person I’d willingly answer a phone call from.”)
📲 Drunk text them ‘I LOVE YOU’ at 2 PM on a Tuesday—stone-cold sober.
🎶 Make a friendship playlist that screams ‘this is us.’ (Start with Lizzo. It’s a law.)
If the world wants us to be miserable, what’s more punk rock than celebrating the people who keep us sane?

Step 3: Queer Love Is Revolutionary, So Love the Hell Out of It
Here’s your annual reminder that joyful, thriving queer love is an act of rebellion. The world still tries to silence, erase, and regulate LGBTQ+ love—but guess what? We’re still here, falling in love, writing each other the sapphic-est, most chaotic love notes imaginable.
🏳️🌈 Buy your girlfriend a Valentine’s card that makes her blush. Or laugh. Or both.
🌈 Be loud about queer love. Post the picture. Tell the story. Celebrate the hell out of it.
📢 Refuse to shrink yourself. Love, in all forms, is worth celebrating.
📢📢 And WE ain't going ANYWHERE!
📢📢📢 Loving openly isn’t always easy, but it’s powerful as hell. So whether you're single, taken, or just deeply in love with your cat, embrace the love you have.

Step 4: Don’t Just Survive—Romance the Damn Moment
The news cycle is exhausting, the vibes are questionable, and some days it feels like the world is throwing a tantrum. But we don’t just survive—we thrive, we celebrate, we keep going.
🔥 Wear the outfit that makes you feel hot. Even if you’re just grabbing coffee.
✨ Dance in your kitchen at midnight. Because why not?
💋 Flirt with life, even when it’s being a little brat.
And if all else fails? Send yourself (or your favorite person) a sassy-ass greeting card from Loveline. Because love isn’t just for romance—it’s for everyone, everywhere, all the effing time.

Step 5: Love Yourself Harder Than Ever (Especially If You're in the Thick of It)
For anyone out there feeling like love left you behind—whether you’re freshly single, finalizing a divorce (yep, same), or just struggling to believe in all this mushy nonsense—know this: Your love story isn’t over. You are not broken. You are becoming. WE GOT THIS!
There is so much love still waiting for you—love in friendships, in new beginnings, in that one song that makes you scream-sing in the car. And most of all, in yourself.
So if Valentine’s Day rolls around and you feel like love is for everyone but you? Flip the script. Take yourself out. Write yourself a love letter. Claim your own damn joy.

Final Thought: Love Wins, Always
Here’s to choosing love and joy in the face of everything that wants to dull our shine. I've been told that my shattered pieces of life and experience could turn into a disco ball if I glued them altogether and had some styrofoam. Whether it’s the small joy of a handwritten note, the comfort of your best friend’s laugh, or the sheer defiance of loving yourself, your people, and the world anyway.
Because joy is radical. Love is unstoppable. Let's find it within ourselves and within each other let's manually shift the energy out of that dumpster fire of 2024 plus January.
Peace, Love, & Rainbows, Y'all!
