Soon it be Valentines day.. is it or should i say a commercialised and materialised Valentine. Its a day to expense exchange gifts,a day to try luck,day to envy friends n peers,a day when youngsters bunk school.college,work to be with their partner maybe watch a movie at a multiplex,have dinner in a an expensive outlet or go on a loooong drive... he he but i thought valentines day was about expressing love right???? then what happened??? i see couples going to pubs where there's no place to stand or maybe the music is too loud..these young couples assume their partner is faithful..the next day you see everything is over. love is materialised n its no longer the feeling that Romeo had for Juliet where they couldnt live wihout each other n now the couples can't stay wid each other.. people have forgotten the significance of this day.. This is not the right way of expressing love.. love someone unconditionally.. Celebrate true love this Valentines..

I am so glad Valentines Day is not a big thing here in Australia, I am sort of in the mind that we should treat people in a valentines type way all year round and not just on one day of the year...persoanlly i think it is all a waste of money yes too commercialised.
