Happy Valentine's Day!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!!

I can recall being a young person desiring to have a Valentine and getting so excited to go to school to exchange Valentine's with my classmates and thinking that the pre-printed card was custom written just for me. As I got older February 14th just became a day reminding me of my lonliness and of how I could not find a genuine individual to love me. It was such a difficult day. Why do people place such importance on a day that many of us don't know the origin of? I know that it was a day that a man named Valentine did something and it was romantic and tragic and became a saint because of it..but I really don't know WHY I want chocolate <--which I only like plain Hershey's becuase the one's in the heart box always have coconut and I hate coconut...and we expect roses....why? When flowers always die so what do those really mean? Why roses? Why not tulips or lily's? I dunno....this is a really cliche' day...but I love it. I cannot help it. I love to be loved. I love the way it makes me feel. I love how happy everyone is that receives a thoughtful card or a sweet gift. It makes you feel all giddy and special. Everyone wants to feel special. So I suppose that I hope that everyone is made to feel special esspecially on this day ;)....so happy Valentine's Day I hope that you spend it with someone special....or at least someone you love even if that someone is yourself!
