Special holiday message - Valentines day:
Valentines day is not about single Men & Woman, wanting to get into a quick relationship, just so they won't feel lonely & will have someone to be with for the day. Valentines day is not about "getting laid" or "losing your virginity" by your significant other, just for the sake of it being Valentines day. Valentines day is not only about appreciating your love ONLY towards your significant other, but also your kids, children, friends, family, neighbors, & even others in this world who you may not know as well, & above all else in this world, our God.
With all the negativity in this world, & the violence & hostility that is present in this world, taking a day to celebrate love is a nice thing indeed, as we can eliminate the negativity that we see, & show the positive's throughout others in this world who we love & care for. However, keep in mind that just because today is Valentines day, doesn't mean this is the only day were we should show our love & care towards one another. The reality of life is that our love should be given, fulfilled & shown everyday & not just one time out of a year. We should learn to love our parent's, our friends, your girlfriend, your boyfriend, your husband, your wife, your co-workers, your neighbors, your kids, other children, or even strangers who we may, or may not know as well. It is important to love one another each & everyday because we have to understand that love is the key essence to life, for it will touch our hearts & awaken our minds. We should celebrate our love & care for one another every day of the year, & not simply on Valentine's Day only, for we can't make up a year's worth of thoughtlessness towards one another, with a days worth of special gifts, flowers, candy, cards, or even forced kindness being shown.
We also must realize that every day throughout the year is met with the hustle & bustle of thing's that we have to get through in a day, such as work, traffic, school, college, homework, running errands, & whatever else your day may consist of on a daily basic's. In that sense, holidays like Valentines day are designated days throughout the year where we can take time out of our day to really look back, reflect, & commemorate the relationships in our lives that we have had, or have with others in our lives, & this is why Valentines days are usually associated with having social celebrations, ceremony's, gatherings, small dinners, or even as small as giving gifts to one another, just as a little reminder to those that we respect & appreciate of them, for all they ever done, or will continue to do every day of the year.
Just remember, It's not about receiving expensive gifts, cards, candy, or flowers from others, or buying the most expensive gifts, cards, candy, & flowers for others, but rather doing something thoughtful that comes from the heart, to get the opportunity to show your appreciation & express your love through your actions, towards one or more people. Most importantly though, Valentine's Day is an overall holiday for reflecting & commemorating the past & current love-relationships in our life's, those that we have gained & lost throughout our life's.
Happy Valentines day to everyone & make sure you love others everyday of the year, for we will never know when it's our time to say goodbye.
P.s I am only what you made me, & I appreciate everything that you have gave me. It feels good to know that I have you on my side through the good times & the bad. God is good...
