Valentine's Day
Rose Delivery $70.00, Candy $20.00, Teddy Bear $15.00, the look on her face when her coworker's gift is better than hers, priceless. That is what Valentine's Day has become. On this day, every year, no matter what I've done the last 365 days, on THAT DAY I better jump in the competition. What competition, the silent, unknown competition that all men have been placed in by their spouse. Every year, we unknowingly compete with each other to see whose significant other got the best gift.
I know you are thinking that I must hate Valentine's Day...well I don't hate the day, I just hate what it has become. It's no longer a day to celebrate love. In all honesty, everyday should be Valentine's Day. I love my wife, and everyday I show her. I don't take just one day out of the year to express it to her.
So when Valentine's Day rolls around next year, don't get caught up in the hype of the day. Remember the reason why you are celebrating.
