Just sitting at home with the kids and reading the boards, cruising FB, and observing people. I hate to see how many people hate tomorrow because they don't have someone in their life to give them something. And lets face it, the media is not helping. Every other commercial is some sappy attempt to convince you that their product is the best way to show love. So here we are....and what we all have in common is that the person we loved, the person we wanted to make tomorrow special for us, has removed themself from that role. They told us they didn't love us anymore, maybe they never loved us, that we were not loveable, that it was our fault. So I see a lot of people who dread what tomorrow stands for. I have decided it stands for nothing. Heck, that is what my X used to say, it was just a holiday manufactured by card makers and candy companys. (Ironically it is the day he chose to marry the OW, which just proves to me he is beyond crazy.) Does having someone in your life on Valentines Day make you a better person? Would you honestly rather still be in the obviously flawed relationship with your X, or be alone. I would rather be alone....actually I am not alone, I have 4 amazing children and no regrets. So tomorrow is February 14th...a day.
