Its Valentine's Day! *yaaaaay* Before you start rejoicing there, what is Valentine's Day? Well, according to Wikipedia, Valentine's Day, also called Saint Valentine's Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is an annual Holiday celebrated on February 14. It originated as a Western Christian Liturgical Feast day honoring one or more early saints named Valentinus, and is recognized as a significant cultural and commercial celebration in many regions around the world, although it is not a public holiday in any country. Why can't it be like every other day? Don't worry, i wont bore you with all that talk about Valentine's Day being everyday of the year, get over yourself, It can't be everyday, Its on the 14th of February every year, Deal with it! Lol.
I'm just wondering though, why some people generally, in relationships, or marriages or just people, would be nice to each other on Val's Day and then after all that Serenre (unnecessary ceremony) they will continue behaving like evil spirits for the rest of the year until Christmas, I just don't gerrit. Why can't we show Love to each other everyday of the year and then maybe on Valentine's Day, make it extra special, i mean that sounds about right. I'm just saying thought, don't bite my head off. hehehe.
As for Le Single folk out there who are going to be on the couch watching, Netflix or African Magic Yoruba, or even Porn on Val's Day, Look around you and show Love to somebody close to you e.g your bottle of Vodka, your bottle of wine, e.t.c just kidding. I mean your family, neighbors, colleagues e.t..c (those of ya'll watching porn keep ya filthy hands to yaself, nasty individual) and if you feel like sharing a kiss, feel free to *In Bruno Mar's voice*"Kiss yourself cos you're so pretty" because its the Season of Love People.
And for Le Married Folk who will choose Val's Day as an opportunity to start dishing out some unwanted advice to their Single friends about how being Single is affecting their existence and is a scourge on the earth, Biko (please), know that God's time is the Best and Face ya marriage. Remember that Marriage is a Forever Affair, you've probably just been in it for less than a year or 2, 3 years, Please ehn, sit tight and maintain ya lane because i don't know who died and made you the Advocate for the Federation of Single People in Africa and the World?
And Lastly, for those Newly married folk that cut off their friends just because the said friend is still single, I really think you should pray o. PRAY that your married pregnant friends won't cut you off just because you still never get bele (pregnancy), also PRAY that your friends with 5 year old kids won't cut you off just because your kids are less than 2 years old, also PRAY that your friends with kids in High school and College won't cut you off, just because your kids are still in Elementary School, also PRAY that your friends turning 40 won't cut you off just because you're not yet 40, also PRAY that your menopausal/ mid-life crisis friends won't cut you off just because you never hit menopause/midlife crisis and the you should finally PRAY that your friends that are dying in old age won't cut you off just because you never die yet.
I Love you all and Happy Valentine's Day.
DISCLAIMER: This might be a bit Ironic but i'll just get on with it anyway. If you or persons you may know feel that you are being directly or indirectly addressed in this post, then i Apologize that you or persons you may know would have to feel that way but there is no need to be "Catching Feelings" because there are 7 Billion People in the world so I am more than likely not referring to YOU. But honestly though Some of ya'll need some Jesus in your Lives. Hian!
