"What I meant to say what 'You're amazing and I love you'..."

[secondlina]

I'm not a huge fan of Valentines day, not so much because of the commercial aspect, but more because of the guilt aspect. You have people who take their significant others on a date because "that's what they should be doing". And people who feel awful for being single. There's a certain lack of spontainity and honesty to the whole day. AT LEAST, for some people.

Other people really get into the subject of the day rather then the so-called obligations. I'm all for that. I like the idea of celebrating love and giving out cheesy little drawings.

So, I guess you could say i'm going to take a day to think about how much I love people. But i'm going to avoid the big special date with the rose bouquet. Cause that's just strange.

Happy heart day to all of you who have a small, or a large place in my heart. My heart is an apartment building. Some stay for a while, others not for long, but the rent is always low! I adore all of you!

Special mention goes to Link, who is my knight in shining cheesiness. You make me laughs, you give great hugs and you can stand the crazy I dispense in large quantities. You deserve all the kisses in the universe.

I would give you one of the cupcakes I made for today if I could. I'm all for having a day to commemorate love anyway. Yesterday I was talking to my niece about the upcoming Valentine card exchange for her class, and it made me really happy and nostalgic. One doesn't need to have a romantic significant other to appreciate the day. ^_-

I actually really liked making cards when I was a kid. But I never got many :_:
