I am not one to have ever celebrated Valentines Day.

I was never fond of the fairytale or myth of cupid striking the affections of others through his famous bow and arrow.

True love is celebrated everyday among those who count in our lives.

So, though, St Valentines day is a mention on the calendar for sweet chocolates, romantic roses, and sentimental cards- this day does not have to be restricted to lovers only.

This commercialized event- originally honoring a few Christian martyrs to later become a folk tradition and day of expressing love- should be shared with any object of one’s love or deep affection.

On Valentines Day commemorate with God, one’s beloved mother, dog, child, or anyone else or thing that applies to what incites the love from within.
