Little kids are at the age where they don’t really get the true meaning of love- they just know they love their mom and dad because they are always there for them, so why cant that just be the case for the older generations?

 We love celebrating Valentine’s Day in elementary and waking up to little boxes of chocolate from our parents. Having the feeling that all of that love and the cute little acts of kindness are coming from someone you aren’t related to feels great.

Unfortunately,  as people get older, everything changes.  Not all of us get to experience Valentine’s Day in the same way we once did. Most of us wake up and wish the day would go away because seeing all the couples reminds you of being single and not have a Valentine.

I say -get your other single friends together and go celebrate each other. Don’t call it “Valentine’s Day.”  Come up with a unique name and just let loose, have fun, and love one another more than you ever have.
