VALENTINE IS COMING...DO YOU NEED A BOYFRIEND?



The first time I heard the song - "valentine is coming, you don't need a boyfriend/girlfriend - all you need is Jesus", I had a good laugh because I just felt the person was really creative with the song and in the real sense of it, with Jesus it feels like you have many boyfriends.

It's that time of the year again! It seems like this is the most popular time of the year (I might be wrong though). Everyone is talking about it and in different ways - there are some people who cannot wait to spoil their spouse with all the love in the world during this period. Some others are hopeful that someone (maybe a secret admirer) would send a gift or show some love to them! Some others are angry at the hype that comes with this season - I mean shouldn't we love our spouses everyday and in all seasons? There are certain people who have decided that this is a season to sell themselves short - give their body to those who do not deserve it, just to show that they are going with the flow of the season.

What category do you fall into?

To be honest, we shouldn't be angry at or  with this season because it is here to stay. It has been this way for as long as I can remember. I remember that in high school, there was always a competition and we were always looking out for those who got gifts from their 'Scope' (boyfriend/girlfriend). Some of us never got anything with all our hopes but we thank God all the same. So this is to say that Valentine day/season is here to stay and it ain't going nowhere.

Go with the flow (i.e. enjoy the season) but don't put yourself under any kind of pressure. It is not compulsory to have a boyfriend or girlfriend just because of Valentine cos after this celebration ends, what happens? Please do not lose yourself in the process of showing or receiving 'love' during this season. Remember that your body is the temple of the most High so don't allow anyone tell you otherwise.

I am a strong believer in showing love everytime and anytime we have the opportunity to. Valentine presents one of many opportunities to show love so please show love to your partner and if you don't have one, don't feel sad or pressured. Take yourself out, do something fun with friends. Have the best of time! Give yourself a gift, if that's what you feel like doing and don't feel bad about it.  I saw a video of someone who bought himself a gift, rang the bell and dropped the gift. He then went inside, opened the door and received the gift with 'awwwwwwwwww' moments. You don't have to be extreme but make yourself happy without doing things that you will regret.

Let me use this opportunity to wish you Happy Valentine's day in advance. We love you and please stay safe!

Thanks a lot for stopping by, we hope to see you soon.

OneLove,
