Tomorrow, Valentine's Day with the school kids, will be a Valentine's Day for them, how about that?
It's not really any day of significance. Nothing changes on that day. Somebody decided to make it a holy day, and everybody followed like lemmings and like the game of "telephone", it got added to and changed down through the centuries, to the day restaurants charge extra for dinners and roses cost three times their regular price and Hallmark makes a little killing.
What then would be the most significant day of one's life, do you think? The day one gets married? The day one gets divorced? The day one's mother dies? The day one gets sent to prison? The day one gets released from prison? The day one graduated college? The day one learns they have a limited time left to live? The day one decides to become a better person? Or just yesterday?
I say, the most significant day in your life, is the day you die. It's in that day, that we see how you lived your entire life, through all the days deemed important or not, and the legacy you have left behind.
Why make non-significant days prominent, and buy into that Valentine's Day stuff?
