Valentine’s Day - El Día del Amor y la Amistad


Valentine’s Day is a day were people that are on a relationship get stressed out on what to do. As well as the ones that don’t have a partner get depressed on not having anyone to spend the day with. This day, for me, is very much commercialized; stores get advantage of this to sell chocolates, teddy bears, flowers and anything else they can think of. I don’t think there is something wrong with giving a gift to someone special. The problem is how it seems wrong to not have anyone or at least a date to spend the day with. Also, how some people take only this day to make something special for the person they love.

I’m from Mexico and there this day doesn’t just celebrate partner love but all types of love including friendship. I move to the U.S a few months ago and I notice that here people need to have a girlfriend, boyfriend, or a date. It is amazing if you are in a relationship and are looking forward to do something special with you “Valentine”. However there is nothing wrong with being single and wanting to spend the day with your friends, watching a movie or even staying at home doing a marathon of your favorite TV show.

Remember that it doesn’t matter how or with who you spend Valentine’s Day with as long as you are happy. This is a day to celebrate love and there are lots of chocolates and cadies to eat. Besides, anytime of the year you can make a special gesture to someone you love. What are your plans for this year’s Valentine’s Day? Hope you have fun and enjoy your weekend.
