An utter dismay!

I HATE Valentine's Day.

I don't just dislike it, I absolutely positively with shear dismay HATE this holiday! It is a commercialized wreck and excuse for attention. Don't get me wrong, affection is okay, but do you have to be told when to show "Love" for someone.

Many people don't realize the Valentine's Day is actually dirived from a Catholic Celebration for St. Valentine.

Why do we celebrate this holiday anyways. What draws us into it?
I am preparing for my day tomorrow. No, its not just "Singles Awareness day" it is Feb. 14th, my parents anniversary, and (St.) Valentine's Day.

To me, its another day to strive for success in everything I do. To share my love and compassion with all that I encounter.

Bring on St. Patricks Day!
