Love, Dainty Button

Valentine's Day. I have mixed emotions about this holiday. I like the thought behind the actual holiday. Love. I like all of the cute decorations, the hearts, the colors (especially pink),  the flowers, blah, blah, blah. But, unfortunately for those that do not have a "significant other", they kind of get cheated on this holiday. Many people have singled out this holiday being for "lovers" and "couples". Love is not just about a man and a woman, as I'm sure we all know that. But, for some reason that's what Valentine's Day has become. If you're not in a relationship, you're just outta luck. Well, that's what people have made it, at least. In grade school, they get those cute little cards from classmates and occasionally, random people will get thoughtful "just because I love you" gifts. Well,  growing up, I always got a Valentine's Day gift. No, not from a "boyfriend". To be honest, out of my entire dating history, I have only had a boyfriend on two different Valentine's Day and he forgot both. Needless, to say, there is a reason why we are not together anymore. That, along with 146 other reasons. Ok, back to the subject.

My mom always gave us a gift. It's still a tradition. She always taught us that Valentine's Day is not about a "boyfriend" or "girlfriend", but about "love". It's about showing those you love that you love them. It's a little sad that people have singled this out for only the "couples".  So, what are you doing for Valentines Day? Any special plans? Buying anybody a gift or doing something special for someone that's not your "significant other"?
