There are countless ways to express love to others, and the most effective methods often depend on the preferences and personalities of both the giver and the recipient. Showing you care doesn’t always equate to grand gestures and spending lots of money. Simple, thoughtful actions can make all the difference. In honor of the month of love and with Valentine’s Day being a few days away, today I’m sharing 14 simple ways to celebrate those you love.
