St. Valentines day..... I have mixed emotions about this holiday. Is it a celebration of Love or a reason for people to do and say things that they usually don't. I'm thinking the latter describes what most people use this holiday for. HAVE TO go get the significant other flowers or some piece of jewelry. I suppose it is a good way to make sure the people you care about in life, know you care about them. But then again if they don't already know.... you're doing something wrong the rest of the time. This may be my one sided, possibly unattainable fairy tale view on how things should be. Every day is Valentines day.... without an ounce of wonder as to how the other person feels or what they think. Truly and simply needing someone, and knowing they need you. Doing things that suck to make the others life easier..... with a smile and no complaints because it makes them happy. Selfless acts of kindness and Love without any forethought. Giving all of your heart, soul and mind to someone with no closed doors.

I think there are a lot of people out there that don't really know what Love is. And they never will... they don't have it in them. They are more worried about themselves than others. And I think that Valentines day has turned into a way for stores to get these people to do something "nice" once a year.

I have most definitely been shot by cupids arrow before..... and in the end it damn near killed me. Do they make arrow proof vests? Think I'll check into that.

Happy St. Valentines day to all the people who will act the same the rest of the year.
