So Valentine's day is around the corner...
I've never been a fan or in favour of celebrating this specific day - it is pure marketing strat.
So much pressure, so much overspent of money on unnecessary things - prices literally triple, on everything! Food, wine, bubbly, flowers, chocolates, cards...you name it, the price will shoot up building to this day, and especially on this day.
However, I am a dear fan of Love.
I love Love.
Love being in love, love the idea of (everlasting) love, between lovers and friends.
Mostly love is not that everlasting, and usually has a sting in the tail, and heartbreak for at least one of the parties involved.
Now here is possibly one of the best, if not the best piece of advise and truth I have had the pleasure to read about love and its consequences...
"We have all hurt
someone tremendously,
whether by intent or accident.
We have all
loved someone
tremendously, whether by
intent or accident. It is an
intrinsic human trait, and a
deep responsibility, I think,
to be an organ and a blade.
But, learning to forgive
ourselves and others because
we have not chosen wisely
is what makes us human.
We make horrible mistakes.
It is how we learn.
We breath love.
It is how we learn.
And it is inevitable."
How beautiful and true?
Be kind to one another, and love responsibly.
