day full of love

Have you ever been in love? Have you been hurt before? Have you ever offended another person's feelings? 

Valentine's Day falls on a cold February 14th. February 14 is significant for those who are in love. Valentine's Day, in their opinion is a rare occasion to reaffirm love. It's a wonderful day for everyone, whether you are in a relationship or not. Have you ever been given a flower by someone you care about? That could be the smallest gesture, yet it could mean a lot. 

Last February 14, the day that can evoke various emotions in different people, and this year's Valentine's Day was extremely memorable for me. You want to know why? continue reading.           

Valentine's Day is a day set aside to honor love and affection. It is a time for couples to show their affection for one another through presents, romantic gestures, and quality time spent together. Valentine's Day is a wonderful day that many people look forward to and enjoy year after year. Some, on the other hand, regard Valentine's Day as just another day on the calendar. For the past 15 years of my life, this has been the case.  That is, until this year.

For the first time in my life, I celebrated Valentine's Day with him. It's an indescribable feeling, almost weird. I've spent so many years of my life ignoring the holiday, practically dismissing the idea that it's a necessary or meaningful day. 

Rather of receiving monetary gifts, Valentine's Day for me is about spending quality time with the people I care about. It's a day to celebrate the love that surrounds you and to express your gratitude to those you care about. Let us remember how much we are loved and treasured even if it isn't Valentine's Day!

In conclusion, while Valentine's Day may be simply another day for some, it is a special day for me that I am looking forward to celebrating with my home. It serves as a reminder to express our love and appreciation for the significant individuals in our lives on a daily basis, not just on Valentine's Day.
