Valentine's round the corner. In the States, this would be celebrated with flowers, chocolates, candle light diners and hallmark cards (at least ten years ago before the internet age hallmark cards are a must to express your love).
I do not recall when was the last time I celebrated Valentine's Day. Do I miss celebrating this special day? I suppose I miss receiving flowers, chocolates and tender loving words. I think I miss being made to feel special.
Then it occurred to me I am doomed for disappointments if I am waiting for other people to make me feel special. I am special for who I am and I do not need endorsements from others. I am special in my own quirky ways and there are people out there who love me for all my imperfections. For those people, I am thankful.
On this special day, I am going to take the chance to tell people I love how special they are. I hope in doing so I can touch the heart of just one person and make that person believe in himself. Life is full of hope only when you believe in yourself.
