Valentine Rant!

There are some people(couples) that have been brainwashed or, that's too harsh, so I'll say...persuaded to believe that Valentine's Day is this historical conspiracy that shouldn't be celebrated because; lets just say: They show love 365 days a year. Or. There's no need to show love on just ONE particular day of the year!

That's bologne!! Don't let someone feed you that line of bull!! Now granted, there are some people that celebrate NO particular holiday or special occasion due to religious beliefs and whatnot. I'm not talking about them. I'm talking about the idiots that will celebrate a birthday, anniversary, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, 4th of July, April Fools Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas, but when Valentine's Day rolls around all of a sudden; they don't believe in it!

Get Real!!

Truth of the matter is; no one ever said you don't show love all year; Valentine's (for those of us that aren't so literal or radical) is just a day designated to celebrate L.O.V.E.! A day that everyone comes together at one time to recognize love. That love isn't just about husband/wife, boyfriend/girlfriend, but ALL love you share; whether for kids, grandparents, parents, siblings, friends and most importantly God!

Of course we know you're thankful for family; however, like clockwork in November, we come together with our families in celebration of them and all over food. Of course you're loved by family and friends everyday of you're life, but on the day you were born it's nice to join together eat, drink, and bear gifts; that you last yet another year and that we're able to enjoy you on the day you were born. Of course you value the hardwork a secretary (um, excuse me...executive assistant) does; but it speaks volumes when you acknowledge them on the day set aside or know as Secretary's Day!

I say all of this just so people can get it together! It really chokes my chicken that there are actually people that go overboard often times with their views! And it's possibly because, especially in a new relationship; they just don't want to celebrate Valentine's with you. Give them another relationship where the mate is not going for that crock of potatoe soup and I bet you any kind of money they'll be singing a different tune; standing in a line to pick up flowers, candy, cards and a Teddy bear!!! SMDH!

And guess what?! Valentine's Day has gotten too commercial, but NEWSFLASH!! Hasn't every american holiday we celebrate! You damn near go into a great depression around Christmas time if you can't get you're family everything they ask for! So get over it!

Of course, February 14th of any given year, is not the only time you show love!! You ARE supposed to show it everyday; in every action, word and thought; but it is a that everyone acknowledges as a day for lovers!

So get up! Love thy neighbor just as Christ loves you! Be blessed and be in LOVE for God is LOVE!

Don't allow someone to remove the open celebration of love that you have always believed in because they have an idiosyncratic belief of how to celebrate-whatever that is they're celebrating LOL!

XOXO
