I love Valentine's day!! I have seen so many posts on Facebook about single people complaining about Valentines Day, and to be quite honest it's silly. Yes, Valentine's Day is a "made up" holiday that is all about love, and yes we would show our loved ones love 365 days a year, but why can't we have one day where it is 100% okay to be completely mushy, romantic, so in love you're silly without being criticized? Saying that Valentine's day is just another day and we should always show love is like saying birthdays are just days and we should celebrate like it's their birthday everyday. Why not one day out of the year we 100% think about someone else, the person (or people) who hold our hearts?
Yes, not everyone is in a "relationship," but we all have relationshipS, right? If you're single, dedicate V-day to your mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, best friend, brother, sister, or even your neighbor down the street. Or better yet, Jesus. Yes, Valentine's Day is just another day to spend money on useless things like flowers or chocolate, but why not take advantage of that to show your love for someone, even if it is not your spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend. Yes, show love all the other 364 days, but why not take ONE day to show even more love? What would that hurt?
I love love and when it is okay to talk about love, I'm going to take advantage of that opportunity and I suggest you should too.
Until next time...1 Corinthians 13:4-8
My Love...he is perfect!
