Enjoy Your Valentine's Day

February 12th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

I don’t know what you all were expecting for today’s post, if you all thought I was going to go into some long diatribe about Valentine’s Day and if that diatribe was going to be pro-Valentine’s Day or con-Valentine’s Day, but I’m doing neither.

All I’m going to say is this: Enjoy this coming Sunday in whatever way you see fit. Don’t be a cynic. If you don’t have a boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, or wife, call up the people you do have and tell them you appreciate them. And yes, you probably already did it the day before and you might do it every day after, but tell them they’re loved on Valentine’s Day too.

Hallmark Holiday, Schmallmark Holiday, like it or not, Valentine’s Day is the one day out of the year specifically designed to celebrate love. As far as I’m concerned, with so much hate in the world today, Valentine’s Day is a good thing,  whether we’re single or in a relationship or just got out of one.

Happy Valentine’s Day, y’all. Feel free to discuss what it does or does not mean to you in the comments. I’ll see you all on Tuesday.

    I have always said, that I know Valentine’s Day is officially meant to celebrate the “romantic love” you have in your life, but I always recognize and appreciate the tremendous amount of love I have and recieve from my family and friends and I make sure that on Feb 14th they know that I love them if they didn’t already know.

    THANK YOU. i was just writing about this as well. i have the worst v-day track record (found out i got cheated on the day before, got into a fight with my man the day of, got stood up another) but i still love it. if u are so anti fake holiday, then u shouldn’t celebrate bdays and christmas either. if u celebrate vday nice. if u don’t, nice as well. just don’t ruin it for everyone else.

    I agree with this…but I would be interested in your opinion about a relationship where one doesn’t celebrate VDay and one does…I’ve blogged my thoughts about it and would like feedback. Great post and happy vday!

    Word. Doing something extra special on V-Day doesn’t somehow cancel out all of the other days you show love. It doesn’t mean only show love on that day, it’s just a day set aside to show your loved-one some “extra-special love”, so to speak. Nothing wrong with that, IMO.

    I quoted that on my facebook. Made the post for me, too.

    i’ve heard people trying to be all inclusive and call it “status awareness day” lol SAD.

    My man and i don’t set valentine’s day apart because we like to think that we don’t need a specific day to emphasise our love for each other, plus it’s just another day when people be expecting gifts frm you, as if X-mas wasn’t bad enough :) however i have nothing against people that make a thing out of it, it always puts a smile on my face when people show love.

    i have a problem with valentines day….its like a national set-up for all men,a month before valentines day your woman tells u either what she wants,what she doesnt want,or what u better not do again.its like we upgrade for them every year to get the same out come..if i knew magic i would disappear on feb,13 and return on fathers day..seriously all jokes aside im tired of spending all this money on her then a nice dinner to receive some silk boxers,colone,and the same sex position you’ve already done like 4000 times but they’re the ones who’s not happy????to end this comment im extremly mad you didnt write about the “real” valentines day
