{.february the fourteenth.}

Well, February 14th is almost at its end. Oh, Valentine's Day. There are so many things I could say about this day. Personally, I LOVE Valentine's Day. No, I don't have a Valentine whom eye's I could gaze into all day. Not that I want to gaze into someone's eyes all day...I'm not much for "eye babies." But nevertheless, today was a really good day. I got to wear my new heart cardigan (no, I'm not ashamed to say that I'm not above the cliche dress code of today!), I got to eat about three tons of sugar, and I got to sing and dance and laugh with friends. I've lived through many Valentine's Days...most single, some while in love, but I've come to realize that it doesn't matter if you're single or not on this day. Valentine's day is FUN. Plain and simple. It's a day to give your friends tacky presents to show them you love them. Its a day where you don't have to feel guilty for eating candy til you nearly explode. What could be better than that?! =)


Okay, but in all seriousness folks...let's try to remember one thing. Besides eating three tons of candy, the idea of Valentine's Day should be a daily thing! Maybe without all of the unnecessary tackiness...but all that love...ya, that shouldn't come for just one day! Whether you have a special someone or not, we all have Christ and we should be living out His love every. single. day. 


Don't let the commercialism of February 14th bring you down. Don't let one cold random day of winter make you think less of who you are. Let every day be one where laughter is the BEST medicine, God is your focus, and relationships outside of Christ do not define you! Remember who you are in Christ...nothing is greater!


"I have loved you with an everlasting love..."
Jeremiah 31:3
