Ahh, the day of love is upon us. I painted my nails, wore red with a flower in my hair, ate chocolates and handed out my cards. I smiled and told everyone I saw Happy Valentine's. I am a sucker for any Holiday, this being one of my favorite being the hopeless romantic I am, also red is my favorite color so I really got to flaunt it. But, my heart wasn't in it as always, but I still enjoy any day that celebrates love, not so much the commercial aspect which people can get a hate on for, but just the idea in general! I can't wait until i can revel in the light of someone else's love for me, not just one day a year, but everyday. Even though sometimes it feels like I might never find that, when I do actually think about it, it makes me smile.
Although lately I have been surrounded by a lot of negativity when it comes to love, I refuse to let that change my view on true love. Here is my favorite love quote. It happens to be from the bible and you have probably heard it at every wedding you have even been too, but I feel in love with it before I knew that. Someone bought my a journal with bible verses in it for inspiration and there it was, this is what I want some day.
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails "
Until I find that I suppose I am still hopeless :)
Happy Valentine's Day! xox
