The Love Bucket® is on Pinterest.  This is the official pinboard with more pins to be added.

Other people have used the term but it does not relate to The Love Bucket Concept (that relates to the trademark. ) Here are a couple more beneath the Official pinboard,  The Love Bucket®, on Pinterest. Often you hear the words ‘love bucket’ as a term of endearment. That is not The Love Bucket Trademark for the USPTO, United States Patent and Trademark Office.

You are my love bucket. When someone uses the term ‘love bucket’ as a term of endearment it is the same as saying something like  there are ‘four seasons’ of love. This could not be confused with Vivaldi’s musical composition, Four Seasons.  Or the Four Seasons of spring, summer, winter, and fall. 

The Love Bucket® is a term used in commerce.

Another related trademark term used in commerce is Love Bucket Book.   Although not registered, it has been in use since 2008.  Have you read a Love Bucket Book?

Please respect The Love Bucket Trademark and no matter if you are a “famous” company, using a trademarked concept that has been circulating for several years that becomes part of the conversation because it simplifies and makes so much sense, should not be used in promotions for public relations or financial gain.  Thank you!

Valentine’s often strikes fear into the hearts of men because guys think they have to provide a gift or experience that costs lots of money (and takes time).

One of the simplest things that a guy or gal can do is give a card on Valentine’s Day.  A card, because it is physical, may seem like the Provisions Ring of Desire but it really is more like a combination of recognition and contact.  Both Contact and Recognition Ring of Desire have several forms because you touch hearts by recognizing your loved one’s desires. 

Reach out and touch someone’s heart on Valentine’s.  You can tell them in words.  That’s exactly the sentiment that Hallmark proposes when you honor  your loved one’s desire on Valentine’s Day. 

We can all relate to wanting to hear or read these words of desire:

Tell me you love me.

Tell me I’m beautiful.

Tell me we’ll grow old together.

Tell me I can do it.

Tell me it is in sickness and in health.

Tell me I’m yours.

Tell me 40 is just a number.

Tell me I’m your super hero.

Tell me you miss me.

Tell me you’ll never let me go.

Tell me I’m still the one.

Tell me you need me.

Tell me you’ll fill my love bucket.

Each person says it differently. And the impact is different, too. (2 versions)

The 7 Rings of Desire of The Love Bucket can be words in text message but when in combination one than one ring of desire The Love Bucket gets filled so much faster.  The Love Bucket does not overflow, it expands to receive more love… so bring it on!

Love Bucket: Filling The Love Bucket Before Valentine’s Day Is A Smart Move!

Happy New Year 2012 seems like a distant memory now that we are bombarded with Valentine’s Day which is less than 40 days away.  The Christmas cards have been replaced by Valentine’s hearts, cards, and chocolates. 

The easiest way to fill the love bucket, whether you are filling a woman’s love bucket is to shine up the Recognition Ring of Desire.  There are 7 Rings of Desire®” of “The Love Bucket®”

Spencer Tracy may be right, but so is Gerald Eakdale when it comes to recognition. She their recognition quotes.

“It is up to us to give ourselves recognition. If we wait for it to come from others, we feel resentful when it doesn’t, and when it does, we may well reject it.”    – Spencer Tracy

“Recognition is the greatest motivator.”  -Gerard C. Eakedale

Since the love bucket blog focuses on men filling women’s love buckets, I tend to agree with Mary Kay Ash and William James.

“There are two things people want more than sex and money… recognition and praise.”  -Mary Kay Ash

“What every genuine philosopher (every genuine man, in fact) craves most is praise – although the philosophers generally call it ‘recognition’!”
-William James

Often the word appreciation is used interchangeably with recognition. This is a huge hunger, a huge desire.

"There is more
hunger for LOVE
and APPRECIATION
in this world
than for bread."
~Mother Teresa

You’ll begin to see LOVE BUCKET showing up in stores (below with candles, buckets, aprons) and online (above).  Images that say love bucket in the headline that don’t have a love bucket (did you “The Love Bucket®” is a registered trademark?) and handmade buckets with hearts. 

The Recognition Ring of Desire of “The Love Bucket®” needs to be shined up on a regular basis.  It needs attention.  Do you give the right kind of attention to you loved one?

I’ve switched the word motivation with recognition in Zig’s quote to illustrate the point about giving regular recognition to fill the love bucket.

“People often say that recognition doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily." -Zig Ziglar

Thank you for filling the The Love Bucket® before Valentines, on Valentine’s Day and every day.

Fill Her Love Bucket Today!

Love was Steve Job’s supreme virtue, his god of gods.

Steve was like a girl in the amount of time he spent talking about love. Love was his supreme virtue, his god of gods. He tracked and worried about the romantic lives of the people working with him.

Whenever he saw a man he thought a woman might find dashing, he called out, “Hey are you single? Do you wanna come to dinner with my sister?”

I remember when he phoned the day he met Laurene. “There’s this beautiful woman and she’s really smart and she has this dog and I’m going to marry her.”

When Reed was born, he began gushing and never stopped. He was a physical dad, with each of his children. He fretted over Lisa’s boyfriends and Erin’s travel and skirt lengths and Eve’s safety around the horses she adored.

None of us who attended Reed’s graduation party will ever forget the scene of Reed and Steve slow dancing.

His abiding love for Laurene sustained him. He believed that love happened all the time, everywhere. In that most important way, Steve was never ironic, never cynical, never pessimistic. I try to learn from that, still.

… He treasured happiness.

…And every time his wife walked into the room, I watched his smile remake itself on his face.

I remember my brother learning to walk again, with a chair. After his liver transplant, once a day he would get up on legs that seemed too thin to bear him, arms pitched to the chair back. He’d push that chair down the Memphis hospital corridor towards the nursing station and then he’d sit down on the chair, rest, turn around and walk back again. He counted his steps and, each day, pressed a little farther.

Laurene got down on her knees and looked into his eyes.

“You can do this, Steve,” she said. His eyes widened. His lips pressed into each other.

He tried. He always, always tried, and always with love at the core of that effort. He was an intensely emotional man.

I realized during that terrifying time that Steve was not enduring the pain for himself. He set destinations: his son Reed’s graduation from high school, his daughter Erin’s trip to Kyoto, the launching of a boat he was building on which he planned to take his family around the world and where he hoped he and Laurene would someday retire.

What I learned from my brother’s death was that character is essential: What he was, was how he died.

Tuesday morning, he called me to ask me to hurry up to Palo Alto. His tone was affectionate, dear, loving, but like someone whose luggage was already strapped onto the vehicle, who was already on the beginning of his journey, even as he was sorry, truly deeply sorry, to be leaving us.

He started his farewell and I stopped him. I said, “Wait. I’m coming. I’m in a taxi to the airport. I’ll be there.”

“I’m telling you now because I’m afraid you won’t make it on time, honey.”

When I arrived, he and his Laurene were joking together like partners who’d lived and worked together every day of their lives. He looked into his children’s eyes as if he couldn’t unlock his gaze.

Until about 2 in the afternoon, his wife could rouse him, to talk to his friends from Apple.

Then, after awhile, it was clear that he would no longer wake to us.

His breathing changed. It became severe, deliberate, purposeful. I could feel him counting his steps again, pushing farther than before.

This is what I learned: he was working at this, too. Death didn’t happen to Steve, he achieved it.

He told me, when he was saying goodbye and telling me he was sorry, so sorry we wouldn’t be able to be old together as we’d always planned, that he was going to a better place.

Dr. Fischer gave him a 50/50 chance of making it through the night.

He made it through the night, Laurene next to him on the bed sometimes jerked up when there was a longer pause between his breaths. She and I looked at each other, then he would heave a deep breath and begin again.

This had to be done. Even now, he had a stern, still handsome profile, the profile of an absolutist, a romantic. His breath indicated an arduous journey, some steep path, altitude.

He seemed to be climbing.

But with that will, that work ethic, that strength, there was also sweet Steve’s capacity for wonderment, the artist’s belief in the ideal, the still more beautiful later.

Steve’s final words, hours earlier, were monosyllables, repeated three times.

Before embarking, he’d looked at his sister Patty, then for a long time at his children, then at his life’s partner, Laurene, and then over their shoulders past them.

Steve’s final words were:

OH WOW. OH WOW. OH WOW.

“If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.”
— Steve Jobs

When a man wants to honor is wife for their anniversary and takes two months to plan and build a gift he automatically moves up to MASTERMAN status.

That is exactly what William did when he recreated the most amazing and wonderful parts of his wedding and married life. He presented the beautiful Jacqueline with this “Heart & Soul” gift that is hand crafted with intricate detail.

He provided this present in the form of a beautiful physical object that accompanied a weekend getaway. But what he really provided was a memory that will last forever.

Keeping his gift clandestine was tough. He built it at home and had to do it while Jacqueline was not around. William, an attorney, does not usually have cuts on his hand. His clothes are not sprinkled with gold. His two children were sworn to silence which was a miracle in itself that they could keep it a secret. In fact, their daughter told a while lie and said to her mother, “Daddy got you a piece of jewelry and he’s trying to fool you by putting it in a big box!”

The love story of Jacqueline and William goes on long before their twelve years of marriage (Congratulations!). They met when Jacqueline was 21 and William was 34. Jacqueline felt she was too young for marriage and they went their separate ways. Jacqueline moved away. Years later she came home for a funeral and thought of William. Jacqueline decided she would stop by his office and see him on her way to the airport but there was so much traffic that she did not have time.

When she arrived home she found a letter waiting for her. It was from William. He had actually hired a private investigator to find her. He loved her after all those years and wanted to see her. A marriage proposal quickly ensued. Like many marriages it is not perfect but they communicated and work on it together.

Jacqueline and William got married in Venice, Italy, on a Gondola on the Grand Canal. Deep passion fills both their hearts! They have been back to Venice several times and their home is filled with Italian chandeliers and tapestries that reflect their romantic love.

The wedding in Venice represented their romantic sentiments but to make it all legal in the United States they got married again at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. All the details of their two weddings are captured in the hand-carved sculpture from William.

William researched the details, painted the gondola seats blue (Jacqueline’s favorite color), covered the stars (which are crystals) and horses with gold foil. He filed off the horses saddles. He painted the hair on the figurines and attended to the minutest details. He ordered the Lion charm to represent the Venetian Lion of St. Marks. The columns represent the columns of the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco.

A gift like this is priceless. A gift like this that represents your love provides a memory that only two lovers can truly appreciate. It is personal, cherished, and intimate. When William explained every detail of his creation to Jacqueline he was beaming with pride. She felt his love coming from every part of his being. Each ornament and item is a monument of his love for her.

William filled the love bucket with the Provisions Ring of Desire. Provisions often has a physical form like gift or present but it is so much more. The Provisions Ring of Desire of Jacqueline’s love bucket provides not just the physical present but the history, memory, and future dreams of a life filled with more love.

CONGRATULATIONS, Jacqueline and William!!!  May you share many love-filled anniversaries, special occasions, and days of love!

"Love is a state of being not a state of feeling. It goes well beyond the realm of the emotions. It’s an attitude of benevolence and kindness towards all creation, including one’s self, at all times and under all circumstances. Love is the most powerful magnetic force in the universe." ~ Carnelian Sage

Marriage Proposal that hits it out of the park and into the Love Bucket!

See details for September 16th wedding here:
http://wayneandnancy.com/index.cfm?fa=welcome

The Oakland A’s baseball team has never hosted an "on-field" wedding until now and the big event happens on Friday, September 16, 2011 at home plate at the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum. Just after batting practice and just before the Oakland A’s take on The Detroit Tigers on "Fireworks Night."  If you know Nancy and Wayne’s "story", you know there is no more perfect location for the wedding and to start their married life together.

Last May, I was blessed to witness an amazing marriage proposal of Sean and Mindie.  
http://lovebucketblog.com/1440/the-most-amazing-marriage-proposal-fills-the-love-bucket-sean-mindies-engagement/

And that same weekend I heard Sir Anthony Hopkins talk about his wife in superlatives (he definitely filled her love bucket!)
http://lovebucketblog.com/1420/anthony-hopkins-fills-the-love-bucket/

When I came home I got the news about another proposal that took place at the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum.  Even hearing about Nancy and Wayne’s proposal story filled my love bucket! 

“Nancy, I love you forever!    Will you marry me? – Wayne”

Maybe I’m Amazed – Paul McCartney

Maybe I’m amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I’m afraid of the way I love you
Maybe I’m amazed at the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line

Maybe I’m amazed at the way I really need you
Baby I’m a man maybe I’m a lonely man
Who’s in the middle of something
That he doesn’t really understand

Baby I’m a man and maybe you’re the only woman
Who could ever help me
Baby won’t you help me understand,Oooohh

Baby I’m a man, maybe I’m a lonely man
Who’s in the middle of something
That he doesn’t really understand

Baby I’m a man and maybe you’re the only woman
Who could ever help me
Baby won’t you help me understand, oohhh

Maybe I’m amazed at the way you’re with me all the time
Maybe I’m afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I’m amazed at the way you help me sing my song
Right me when I’m wrong
Maybe I’m amazed at the way I really need you

Oh,Oh,ohhh, yeah, oh,oh ohhh yeahh Oo-oo
~~~~~~

CONGRATULATIONS, Wayne and Nancy!!!  We’ll see you on home plate!
