‘Tis
the season of Roses, Chocolates, Love letters, Stuff toys, Restaurants and
other places filled with couples. Indeed, love is in the air!
On
this day, February 14, we would expect to see couples celebrating this day
really happy and full of love. People will surely find and do things just to
make their partners feel loved during the Valentine’s Day. But how about those
people who are not in a relationship on this day? How would the singles be able
to enjoy the Heart’s Day?
Of
course there are a lot of ways. Celebrate and go out with friends, have a date
with your family and other loved ones, stay busy, and a lot of other things.
One may also sleep the whole day and act as if today is just a normal day or
make it your ME time since for some singles, Valentine’s day is their Single
Awareness Day.
But
really, why do some people stay single when they can actually enjoy being with
somebody else? While there are a lot of reason for staying in a relationship,
we could also enumerate numerous reasons why people choose to be single.
For
some, being single is means staying out from headache and stress... something
we all knew is just an excuse to a something deeper reason. Some would say
being single keeps them away from hassle, remembering important dates, ensuring
to attend to our partner and etc. Maybe they have a point. Maybe that is
somehow true. And all we can give to these people is the benefit of the doubt
... the thought that may be they are telling the truth.
Another
reason for staying single is being too picky in finding or choosing the right
partner for us. We would encounter people listing who they wanted to be with,
what kind of a man or woman they want, they wanted this, they wanted that...
even parents and family members makikilista
ng standards nila.
Third
is, that person with a single status had his or her heart broken. That person
could be mending his or her broken heart after a failed relationship. There are
several scenario on why couples have fallen apart but these people or one of
them, who used to be together might choose to just be alone... until such time
he or she has finally moved on. Until the time that he or she is whole again
and has the capacity to love again and enter into a commitment.
The
last reason i have in mind is that, may be that the single person is waiting for
someone. Someone who promised to give love at the right moment. Someone who we
wish to come back and choose us to be with them. Someone who we define as our
true love. Someone who our heart has never forgotten.
I’m sureAll of
us, i think, dreamed of meeting someone at the right time, right moment, who
can make our heart melt and sweep us off our feet. We tend to wait for that
person that is why we choose to be alone until that time arrives.
Being single on
Valentine’s Day doesn’t mean we have to weep and envy those couples celebrating
this special day ... for we, the singles, have our own reason why we choose to
be dateless this Valentine’s Day. Furthermore, Valentine’s Day is not only
meant to be celebrated by couples but also be shared to our loved ones.
Happy Valentine's Day! :)
