Happy Valentine’s Day

Happy Valentine’s Day!

This is for YOU!

 

February 14 is Valentine’s Day.

A day to celebrate love.

For some.

 

In Swedish it is called “Alla Hjärtans Dag”

It is the same thing just a different name.

But I have always preferred the direct translation, and that is

“Every ones heart day.”

a bit more inclusive don’t you think?

 

When you think of how we celebrate Valentine’s day it is actually a bit more complex then we give it credit for and I am not talking about the original meaning it had from the beginning.

 

to some

it is a reminder of how lonely they are.

How unwanted and ugly they feel

 

Others might have a partner that feels that it is Humbug and just another way for companies to earn more money and sell more crap, but all “You” want is to feel cared fore and loved.

Cost for that? Zero!

 

And then there are those

That get covered with attention, flowers and gifts

one minute

And with bruises the next.

 

This is what I say to all of you

No matter who you are or how you feel about Valentine’s day.

 

Have a wonderful “Alla hjärtans dag”

Your heart deserves to feel loved

Especially from you.
