Many people agree that Valentine’s Day comes with a lot of
pressure to give extravagant gifts and plan the most romantic evening. There’s
also the added pressure of finding someone to be your Valentine before the day
of love comes knocking on the door. T’was a time in my life that I would agree,
but in recent years, my perception of Valentine’s Day has drastically changed.
It’s a holiday that doesn’t require grand gestures of love, but rather unpretentious
displays of fondness and gratitude. Your Valentine(s) can be loved ones, friends,
that kind stranger you see each day, co-workers, and/or yourself. It’s not just
a holiday for lovers. I love sending Valentine’s cards to my close relatives,
and I absolutely love receiving cards, too. The small things are just big
things in disguise, which is what makes them so special. Don’t lose sight of
that, folks. I hope each of you accepts love and compassion and aren’t afraid
to give it in return.
Love,
Nyasia
P.S. HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!
