Follow Up On Valentine's Day.

First I would like to apologize for the late posts. My computer and I haven’t been on good terms.

So, I wanted to switch it up a bit for my third post…..

Valentine’s Day was about two weeks ago and I just want to throw a few things out their. I think Valentines Day is dumb, why do we need “one special day” to show our significant others how much we love and appreciate them. Your love and appreciation should be something you show on a daily without any effort in planning. (Just an opinion) Some may disagree and also agree. I honestly think Valentine’s Day to some people is a huge show. For example, facebook; people go online and rank about how they either had a wonderful day or had a bad day. Some go on and actually give you facts about their personal life’s and how their loved ones surprised them. That leads me to the emotional half of individuals who get emotional about Valentine’s Day but also pretend as if they’re okay about their situation. This also brings me back to my last post, staying true to yourself. If you’re happy then you are, if your sad then you are.

Facebook is places were individuals tend to feel highly of themselves or should I say people create an invisible audience. Sometimes I wish people could hear me through my computer saying, “No one is worried about your relationship well at least I’m not.” But, I’m not going to lie I actually find it amusing when certain people act as if they have fans. Let me just be direct this is mainly coming from the females. I can agree that females are quick to assume things but too assume another female is always trying to break your relationship is just wrong. Please, hunny take a seat somewhere in the corner!

Word of advice to the females who this may apply to, take care of your own relationship and their will not be any unnecessary drama.

What many people need to realize that Valentine’s Day is just another day. Yes, it is great to receive gifts; I had my share of gifts that are probably just going to end up being thrown away later. This year Valentine’s Day my boyfriend and I did something different than the ordinary. We went out to a homeless shelter a couple miles from my house and an Alzheimer’s nursing home. We spent most of the day showing love to the people that need all the attention the most. It was only right to let these people know that their still people out here in the world that care, even if its just by giving them a hug or sitting down to talk with them. I can say my Valentine’s Day was very productive. Think about trying something new on an upcoming holiday and try helping others.

Staying True To Yourself.

I’m hoping everyone can relate to this or at least get a feel of what I’m stating. Staying true to YOURSELF should be a priority to every individual.

            If you can’t love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?

I can honestly sit here and say, once you’re at peace with yourself nothing else matters. I used to be the girl who was so caught up in helping others, but when it came to time when I needed help these same people I once helped were no where to be found. They were times when I hardly made the time for myself. Now that I’ve outgrown that stage, I find it so much better to take care of my relationships with others.

I’ve been through the whole roller coaster phase in a relationship, the good and the bad.

My past has definitely helped me realize, having a relationship with myself is everything I need before getting involved with someone else. I was always quick to have my guard up and absolutely couldn’t trust anyone, it was bad.

Have you ever realized that when people say you’ve changed it’s just because you’ve stopped living your life their way.

Word of advice: Continue to live your life, at the end of the day you came in this world alone and you’re going to walk out alone. Forever stay true to yourself.
