Someone told me yesterday that Valentines Day is also known as Single Awareness Day. How true is that? It is so sweet to see everyone with their roses and teddy bears from their loved ones. However, it is also very easy to tell who is single as these people are not holding the flowers and giant teddy bears. Valentines Day is the most wonderful and depressing holiday at the same time. Those who are taken go out to dinner and go to the movie theater with their boyfriends while the single people watch romantic Hallmark movies on the couch as they bawl their eyes out. Crying actually makes us single girls happy sometimes!
In actuality this was an amazing Valentines Day. I was making valentine cards with the 6th graders. It is so nice to see that Valentines Day isn't all about romantic love. In some countries, Valentines Day is a celebration of friendship. I have had so many amazing friends in my life and I just want to take a minute and thank them. God knew that I needed these people in my life.
It is also nice to have a date for Valentines Day. I am looking forward to that first date with my perfect someone. I may not know who he is yet, but I know that God knows and that he is out there somewhere.
