Valentine’s Day is not for everyone. Not everybody wants to celebrate such ubiquitous holiday for their own unique reasons.
We also need to accept the truth that not everyone is comfortable giving gifts, writing letters, and expressing their love in a single day .But it’s not a bad thing.
Every 14th of February has been a traditional occurrence to celebrate Valentine’s Day. It later become a celebration of romance and love in many regions of the world.
But did you know that most of the people in the world are single? And this holiday can be harsh reminder to those who do not have someone to show their love, pour their feelings and someone to cry on when they are alone?
For those people who do not have partners, the day becomes very difficult day to deal with. Sometimes people isolate themselves so that they are alone. And if you know someone who is like this, a simple gesture of love will be much appreciated.
In other instances, people choose not to celebrate this holiday for various reasons. They may be single by choice, or decide to focus more on self- development. Others may be healing from recent loss or heartbreaks of which it’s the higher percentage rate reasonable way of escaping burden of this day and to some, they may simply not place significant importance on romantic relationships.
So, if you choose not to celebrate Valentine’s Day, you will have to remind yourself that what you are doing is not wrong and it is not a sin.
For that, one day, someone special will come and fill your heart with love to the fullest. All you can do is patiently wait for your forever love. NEVER GIVE UP IN THIS LIFE.
