Happy Valentine's Day

14th February, hasn't been a significant day for me (atleast so far) But this is not going to stop me from wishing others a very happy valentine's day! ... though i doubt people will read this on V-day ... they would rather be busy with their loved one's!

Anyways, V-day means a lot to many folks ... especially for those who work day-in-day-out and don't get time to spend with their loved ones ... well ... this day is exclusively for that! :)
so grab some flowers , chocolates , jewellery or even take your loved one's out for that lovely candle-light dinner!!! In fact this is the day which companies eagerly await to cash in ...
I read a news article which mentioned that "Archies" earns 15% of their income from this one day alone! isnt that amazing ?

And then there is other group of people who are anxiously wait for this day to pass on ... as quickly as possible without themselves being noticed (Yours truly is currently included in this group) ... some of them say "We dont believe in V-day ... why to restrict ourselves to just 1 day in the whole year ?"
well ... i kinda agree ... also V-day somehow seems to be narrow in scope ... is it only for couples to express their love for each other? I think , it should be a day to express our feelings towards everyone who we feel attached to ... be it parents , brother, sister and even friends!!

Plus the focus should be on emotions rather than spending a fortune on material things ... Though a lot of fortune is currently spent on it , i think it's because of the "herd" mentality!
Everyone looks around and feels compelled to celebrate the "V-day" like others do!

Let's be ourselves and celebrate V-day the way we want!!
Happy valentine!!
