Valentines is a special day for everybody, flexing the gift what they had, and given away, on this day of February 14.
What is Valentines to you? It is only for couple married or unmarried, for lovers? In short just for girlfriend and boyfriend and their relationship.
Not so long ago, peoples in all walks of life celebrating Valentines Day, as families, as a friends, they are marking this day, as their extra special day to show how much each other meant for anyone.
They used to book hotel reservations, as well as restaurants to have a great special bonding to their loved ones.
But, what about to the broken marriages and relationship, how do they survived to celebrate Valentines?
I knew someone who are separated from her husband but they have children aged, 3 and years old.
I asked how do you celebrate Valentines as a family with your ex husband? she replied, we're having a dinner date with the kids.
That's all we pretend that we are alright in front of the kids, we pretend that we are perfect family, even though we are not, its hard and how painful it was, pretending and lying, in front of our kids.
She added, kids is always a kid, sometimes they asked embarrasing question to me, asking when their father is going home with us.
I stand to be strong to face and answering this questions that is so difficult to answers and its really awkward.
I can't find an easy way to tell it to the kids,because its to young for them to understand, the status of our family. We are broken and pretending to be alright for the sake of our innocent kids.
My heart sinking hearing this story from my friend, and in my thoughts, I said Valentines is always a perfect Valentines.
Its sound absurd, but its true, in my friend situation, the Valentines Day, is a perfect day for them to celebrate as one family just in a moment.
Valentines is a celebration of hearts, that is why sometimes people, informally says "Happy Heart Day." rather than Happy Valentines.
But what is the essence of Valentines if you are single not in a relationship, or in a complicated relationship and broken relationships.
Valentines is for everyone, no matter is your life status the level of your relationship, since it is Valentines Day or Heart Day, so this is the celebration of feelings.
But if you are away, from your loved one's how do you celebrate Valentines?
Nowadays, even people are faraway, they can still celebrate with their loved ones, through phone calls, video calls, sending gifts via cashless merchant.
