Valentines Day Scrooge

Disclaimer: To those who don't want their Valentine spirit to be ruined. Do not read beyond this point.

------------------------------------------

I've never been a fan of this day. Actually, if I would choose a day to scrap out of the calendar, it would be the ever famous February 14. I don't mean to sound bitter just because I'm single. In fact, even when I was in a relationship, Valentines day was one of the days when my ex-boyfriend and I would pick a really big fight. So there. I should actually be thankful now that I am saved from the hassle of having to experience the long line of cues in the restos or having to do early reservations to whatever place I want to go to...or experience the heavy traffic jam (just because it's a payday week too and everybody -- single or in a relationship -- would want to celebrate their joy of love or lack of it). I am saved from the emotional stress of having to fight over the fact that men don't really like celebrating this day.

For me, love should be celebrated everyday!! Don't you think so? So instead of moping around and spreading my hateful attitude towards this day to the people around me, I've decided to just treat this day as if it were just a normal day.

To those who woke me up early in the morning just to greet me, thank you. I appreciate all the sweet stuff that some people sent me. But I hope you're not expecting any special attention today because I'd gladly give you a hug or a kiss or a sweet gesture anytime of the week, month or year...I promise!!!

And just to clear things up, I love falling in love!! I love the thought of one day telling him and showing him the kind of love that I'm capable of giving. Not just on Valentines Day but everyday of my existence. =)

So to those who are in love, who are out of love, who are hurt by love, and who are searching for love, I wish you not just a Happy Valentines Day but a happy life full of love that everybody deserves...
