Happy Valentines Day
So to be 100% honest I’m not the biggest fan of
Valentine’s Day. Now don’t get me wrong I’m no where near as bad as Jessica
Biel in the movie Valentine’s Day, but I’m not really someone who feels the
need to celebrate it, celebrate it…make sense? Now don’t get me wrong,
obviously I love the romance behind, it and despite all my failures in regards
to feelings, I am a girl and I do love flowers and those boxes of chocolates,
so that’s not why I’m not really fond of this day; it’s more the expectation
that I don’t like about Valentine’s Day.
I feel like everyone expects some big
thing (material item) on Valentine’s Day to show that their significant other
cares, and that shouldn’t be the point of today. Today, in my opinion should be
about spending quality time with the feel that you love, showing them that yeah
shit happens in life, some days are harder than others, but they’re going to
get through it because they have you to lean on when they feel like they’ll
fall…cause that’s all you can really ask of someone. Personally my favorite
gifts from past years have been cards, and not the fancy ones but the really
plain ones that instead of being filled with Hallmarks version of feelings, has
instead been written in by someone who cared about me so much they felt they
wanted to add their own words to express their love for me, and you know what
that’s more than I could ever ask for.
So to all the lovers out there have a
Happy Valentine’s Day with your significant other, to all the single people out
there enjoy today with your loved ones, you don’t need anyone to show you how
special you are, you already know it. As for me I’ll spending today getting
work done with a cup of coffee and watching pretty little liars, cause let’s be
real that’s all love really is.
