Valentines Day one of the most pointless days of the year in my opinion. Love is not supposed to be about giving presents or spending huge amounts of money to please your partner, nor about chocolates and stuffed animal, those are not sentimental, they are only superficial objects that are supposed to represent love. Love is supposed to be simply enjoying each others company and loving them for not what they have but what they give like when they make you smile or how they touch your very soul and bring it warmth. This holiday has simply become an excuse for couples to make out in public and then go home and have sex. This holiday used to be about remembering a great man who brought couples together and lovers to get married but now this has become simply about sex, chocolates, and gifts. If you want to show how much you care do something that comes from the heart. You could write them something, cook, or do something that shows them your love but do not buy them things that have no sentimental value or any love put into it. I used to love the holiday but as time went on I grew to learn that this holiday has become corrupt like many other holidays that have been taken over to simply earn a quick buck. I no longer wish to have anything to with this holiday and refuse to say “happy valentines day”. For this holiday has no great meaning behind it anymore and has become about greed, jealousy, sex, and stupid objects.
