Valentine's Day : My Thoughts on it.

[loveisbeautiful]

Roses are red

Violets are blue

Valentine's Day is next month and I can't seem to give a hoot

Everybody seems to be writing a myTake or asking a question about Valentine's day. So, I thought I would write my own myTake on my opinion of Valentine's Day and how I don't deem it a necessity for myself. There won't be any bashing or trashing or judgement of others, this is simply just my opinion and how I see it. That's it.

When I was little, Valentine's was great! I got to decorate a Valentines Day box. I got candy and I got to get and give Valentine's to others, which was awesome!

Now from my view point, Valentines is a day of goods,

and, services.

As crude and superficial as that may seem, that's how they advertise it and portray it to be. However, love is far more then gifts and sex, it's beyond that. It's meaning is far greater then how they make it out to be, in my opinion anyway.

Also, in my opinion. How can a day where every couple is probably doing this,

almost exact samething. How could you possibly feel special knowing almost every couple is celebrating in the same way you are? I know the person won't be the same and how you celebrate it may not be exact but the circumstanes surrounding this day and the events that usually take place for couples, is kind of the same. How is that special if everybody is doing it?

I personally, wouldn't feel all that special celebrating my love on the same day everybody else is celebrating theirs.

If I'm going to be made to feel special or make that person feel special, I want it to be on a random day, for a random reason. Or, no reason at all other then because they felt like it. Or, in the moment when I or they need to feel special the most. It should came from the heart for the right reasons, not because you feel obligated to do so.

I guess for me, Valentines' Day is like how I view my birthday. Would I be unappreciative if someone threw me a party or got me gifts, no. Do I need all that stuff to feel loved or freak out if I don't get it, no. Just wish me a Happy Birthday or give me a card and let me know you're even the slightest bit happy I was born and I'm a happy camper.

That's how Valentine's is for me, you want to get me a card with cute puppy on it (like this)

or tell me Happy Valentines Day, to let me know you're glad we're together. That would be good enough for me but anything else you choose to do, that's up to you. It's not necessary though, for me to have lavish gifts and a fancy dinner. So, if there aren't any Valentine's day plans, I'm certainly not going to pout like a child

Love is a special thing to me, very special. So, the things I desire the most in my heart and soul, can't be bought at a store near you. There's a reason my screen name on here is loveisbeautiful, because love is in fact beautiful and it should be shown it through out the year and when it really counts the most, not just on the fourteenth of February.

I'm just a simple girl, who wants a simple life. I'm just a girl who does her own thing and doesn't feel the need to do the samething everybody else does. That's just me.

So, if you want celebrate Valentines day, that's wonderful and I have no judgements about that. You don't want to celebrate it, that's fine too. I don't have any judgments about that either. It's all up the couple at hand, to decide how they feel about this day.

Just always remember, love comes from the heart...

Not, the calendar.

Well, this is the part where I shut up now lol. This concludes myTake, on how I see Valentine's Day. I know I ramble, so hopefully my view was clear and understood. Thanks for reading :)

"so, in my opinion. How can a day where every couple is probably doing this,

My thoughts exactly

[loveisbeautiful]

So, you agree?

[Dragonstarterplus]

... Yeah

[mikemx55]

Just because you're different, doesn't mean it's good...

[loveisbeautiful]

@mikemx55 Why is someone being different a bad thing? Should we all just be the same?

[mikemx55]

I didn't say it's bad :p
Just said that being different doesn't automatically make it good or better. Sometimes there is a reason why everyone does some things, they can't all be wrong. Ahh nevermind

[mikemx55]

I've had people tell me that my flaws are good because that makes me different/unique. But they're not. They just sugar coat it.
So I embraced that philosophy: different doesn't make it automatically better/good.

@mikemx55 okay.
