Reasons to Celebrate Valentine’s Day

It’s almost that time of year again! February 14 Valentine’s Day is here, which means that I’m excited. Many people think that Valentine’s day is silly and dislikes the day. Few eye rolls, a few shrugged shoulders and a few like me jump in excitement. Am I right?

I may sound cheesy but there are innumerable reasons why I love Valentine’s Day. It’s not because I love all the pink and red, balloons, the flowers, Valentine cards. I love it for its core concept. Valentine’s Day is not tied to gushy romance or obligation. It’s about love — and what’s not to love about love?

We all want to feel loved and cared for and needed. We all love being reminded about love and life. I am surrounded by an awesome set of people who cares for me, who loves me. So why not tell the lovable world that Yes I love them and they love me. Let’s appreciate the day especially made for love.

No matter if you’re a daughter or a son, Father or a mother, single or married, below are a few reasons for celebrating Valentine’s Day.

Love Love Love

And love is awesome! You can really see how crazy I feel when it comes to love. We all need love especially after terrible days and things that happen to us. It’s the day to focus on all the good things. Talk about love, share the love and be in love. Just put that love to the people you love and I promise the world will be a little brighter.

Let’s be Cheesy

Valentine’s day gives us the reason to be cheesy and tell the people that yes I Love You. Whether it’s telling your partner million times that I love U or giving lots of hugs to your kids. From dancing on the rhymes with kids or playing ridiculous love songs at top volume and dancing around the kitchen will give immense pleasure.

Dressing Up

Dressing up is proven to have the ability to boost confidence. Nothing feels better than looking good. Valentine’s day gives you the reason to look good & feel good.

Chocolates, Candy is super trendy

Let’s be real here and admit that we all love chocolates. Valentine’s Day is the time of year when we have an excuse to eat & buy a variety of chocolates.

Go Out If You Are Single

Your odds are really good, trust me on this. Although the commercials are all couples that don’t mean that V day is for them. You can spend a day like a kid because it’s the day of love. There are endless reasons to be in love other than a romantic relationship.

Writing Letters & making Cards

Especially for crafty & romantic people! Writing letters may sound old-fashioned in this digital world but I think It’s the best way to express true feelings.

Giving people gifts

You don’t need to spend a lot on the gift, a small book or a Rose can do wonders. Gift something special to the loved one and make them feel good and attended to.

Holiday

I’m not suggesting you go out and blow your budget on a holiday, a simple staycation can be a good idea. This day gives you a good reason to go out and enjoy with your family, friend, kids or spouse.

So don’t pooh-pooh Valentine’s Day this year! You don’t have to get a date; you don’t have to spend a lot. Just drink some wine, nom on some chocolate, eat some good food, and have a nice, chill, pleasant day to bask in the love you share with your friends and family

This day remind us how lucky we all are to have love in our lives.

And that’s the reason why I love it so much.
