SAD~Singles Awarness Day: Can you handle this?!

I know its crazy, but although I have not had a "Valentine" in quite a few years, twenty-one to be exact =), I think for me Valentines day just gets better and better every year. Maybe it's that i'm just getting older and used to this being the way it is, and time has been the cure for this. Maybe I am content in my singleness and choose to embrace this season of my life with full force and take it all in with fellow single ladies who are all equally amazing =), maybe i'm humble, hahhaha. But no, I think that the real key for me in this has been figuring out more and more over the years about loving people. The more I learn to love the Lord and let the Lord love me, the more I am eager to share that love with others and just love other people. Although I can honestly say I've never been in love, I have experienced first hand, over and over again, everyday the miraculous, phenominal, overwhelming love of Christ. He is teaching me what love is really, and what it should look like and how He did it, and continues to do it. I think this is essential stuff to learn for myself before I could ever even attempt to fully love and be loved by another person.

I had a great day from start to finish. Although Valentines day is such a halmark, cheesy holiday, I think the concept is great, just celebrating love. It is a gift that we choose to give and choose to accept and we should give it the observation and consideration it deserves. I'm thankful for Christ's love, and I love being able to celebrate this day with wonderful people who are able to grasp this concept as I am, or as I try to, I don't fully grasp it, but I hope to! SO, happy celebrating love day to you and yours. Let's not just make this an annual thing shall we!?
