Subject: That 4 letter word
Happy Valentines Day. In this country, on this day, you always get to thinking about love. The whole idea of Febuary the 14th commercializes everything this day is supposed to mean, and does a bad job of presenting the real meaning. This idea that on one day every year, you confide in your loved one, telling them you love them. I would say it would be a lot more romantic, on a random day, when the pressure is not there.
It's not even about love anymore, it's about the ideas representing love these days- marriage, presents, hearts, candy, dinner and a movie, etc. Love is such a splendid thing, love is such a simple thing. We all ruined it.
Despite me not believing in today, it still makes me think of all the things I thought I had forgotten. We get to thinking about our past relationships, not only with boyfriends, but with your friends too, because truely this is what love is. All the things we thought we had left in the past, the things we thought we had put behind us, reappear right infront of us. Even though it might be gone, it is coming back- just this once- to remind us of what we once had, and once will miss.
I hope you have a splendid one, just keep in the back of your mind however, that love was meant to be simple- God never meant for us ruin it, but we did.

THAT IS SOOOOOOO TRUE, i agree with every word u say. they so rougly destroyed the meaning of what love, its so sad... so pathetic. love is this sweet simple thing shared between two ppl, its not about the gifts, the dates, marriage and candy....
and not only is lvoe that thing shared between a "boyfriend" n "girlfriend" there is the love between friends too.... and that is such a great thing.
there is so much more to love.
love in esssence is not just what u have with that "significant other" but it is also, the love between friends AND family...
