Thursday, February 10 

In my theory- those who complain are jealous. I too fall into that area sometimes...

Also found on the Calgary Herald website.

Another holiday Hallmark, Peoples Jewelers, and Bernard Callebaut has made famous is fastly approaching. While there is nothing wrong with this day, when you're single, there is nothing good about this day... to some people.

In theory, the idea of being someone's Valentine is dreamy. A whole day devoted to romance. How often does this happen during the year? Well- it ideally should happen every day, but alas, February 14 is the day in which Cupid's doings come to light.

Now that I have reached the early stages of adult age, I have been able to sit back and reminisce about those days when I was in elementary school partaking in this fantastic day. We each had to make little pockets and tape them to the front of our desks. Then, our teacher would give us a little bit of time to wander around the classroom and place those cheap Valentines into our classmates pouches. Some pouches received more than others, and at the end of everything, there were always those people who didn't receive anything.

And at the end of the day, I was one of those kids who received way less than everyone else. Not that it's scarred me for life or anything, but it is something that will always remain somewhere in the infinite abyss of my mind.

A friend of mine recently sent me an email saying: "I want to see a show of hands. Who is alone this Valentines day? If you are what are you going to do? Lets all get together and spend this annoying day together!" I almost like the idea of being excited for those people who have had the luck of Cupid striking them in the ass. My girlfriend always has stories to tell me allowing me to live vicariously through her.

And look, Leprechaun Day is just around the corner. I can get my April Fools Day card shopping done ahead of time.

You are only human... It's good to learn from these times what is truely important to you. Take enjoyment in the fact that you now have time to investigate/remember/develope other great aspects of your life and relationships. Take the opportunity to really think about and explore, deeper, the people you know and strengthen their relationship with you. There is a lot of joy in giving to others, your time, your thoughts, and your love. I feel it's when you learn about your character and when greater character is developed. When you "have" its easy to forget why and how you "have". Rather,,,,umm,,, you can better appreciate the goodness of when you "have" which can allow you to better experience and,,,err,,fully engoy when you "have"... Does any of that make sense????

please read the third entry, sorry, i got fat fingers...

Periods, not commas. Or ideally, the true "ellipse" character (?) which has tighter spacing. So that you'd use '...' or '?' vs ',,,' . And single click on the send button, or you get thriple posts. That is all.

Re: Hallmark Revenue Boost Day. The way I see it, single people get to flaunt their liberty 364.25 days of the year, so let the attached folk have their day in the snow.
