Love is in the air...

February 14; also known as Valentines Day, or, what people have deemed it in recent years 'Single Awareness Day'.
What's the big deal? I know that if you're a couple you might enjoy spending an evening together or whatever, but why do single people get so depressed? So many people complain that 'the world is rubbing in the face that they're single'. Who cares if you're single anyway? You shouldn't need someone to bring you flowers and chocolates one day a year to feel loved. And shame on society for making people feel that way. I personally don't really care about valentines day. I'm not opposed to it, and I'm not obsessed with it. Sure I enjoy getting into the spirit of things by wearing my love heart cardigan and a red ribbon, but I don't feel driven to write a secret note to a person of interest (not that there even is one) on ONE day in the year. I mean really, if you like someone, why wait for one single day? what happens if you miss your chance? Do it on any day and don't be such a walking cliché!
I don't need a man to tell me that they love me on ONE day of the year, when I have Jesus who shows me that He loves me EVERY day of my life! I say; if you love someone - and I mean really love them - you shouldn't need a declared date to tell them. In face if you truly love someone you shouldn't have to tell them. They should already know.

When I find my Prince Charming/Mr Perfect/Future Husband (LOL) I'm going to make sure they KNOW I love them. Of course I'll still tell them. But not living by an annual schedule. And notice I didn't say Prince Charmimgs/Mr Perfects/Future boyfriends? That would mean plural. As in more than one. But I only ever want to be with ONE person. I know that isn't everyone's style, but it sure as anything is mine. I've never been in a relationship before. The world may see that as a bad thing. Do you think I'm particularly phased? Not in the slightest. I don't really care what the world thinks of me to be completely honest. I'm not ashamed of my life. And why would I be? I'm so blessed with the amount of things I have access to and all the people I am in association with. I love every act of my life simply because I know even when I'm going tough, that God has a plan and He will pull me through. So don't rely on the love of others. That is my advice to you. Because face it; who else do you know who has unENDING, unFAILING and unCONDITIONAL love? None but Jesus!

Stay Blessed!
