Ok, The Holiday dreaded by single women all over the world has began.
This morning I awoke to realize that the weather is spewing snowflakes, drastically dropped in temperature, and is even adding an icy chill that tickles your nose. The weather apparently doesn't give sunshine and warmth for this so-called romantic holiday.
In talking with a multitude of students this week, there are mixed emotions going into this estranged holiday. Those with love laden eyes, can't wait to get presents and exchange "I love you's", while others who have someone special think this holiday is absolutely absurd. "Why do you need a holiday to tell someone you love them?" -- an excellent point in my perspective.
I remember Valentines days past when I was younger just wishing I had someone special to spend it with. As I got older, it just became a holiday. I have never been a super emotional kind of girl, but I know those women who would just kill to have somebody, to not be single, to not have to be alone......
All I can say to these women is just this -- cherish EVERY moment you have on this earth. Even if the day is dreary, or you have to watch someone suck face in front of you -- it isn't worth your feeling bad or finding the first loser available to make you think you feel better.
One day -- you will get yours! You will meet your match and never have to worry about this pointless holiday ever again. So today, while you watch ridiculous people go crazy over this holiday -- just watch, smile, even giggle in your oddity -- becuase today doesn't have to be a holiday for loving someone else -- make it a holiday to appreciate yourself!
I promise you -- that you will never dump yourself, forget your birthday, always give the most thoughtful chirstmas presents, and never dissapoint! If you want to include another in your day - find your favorite pet! When is the last time you pampered that love of your life?
Tomorrow -- I am dedicated to breaking apart the wierdest valentines day I observed and add a bit of humor!
