I know I haven’t blogged since I don’t know when. It’s just that for the past 25 years I have been dreading Valentines Day. Supposedly a hopeless romantic fool like myself would pine on the coming of this day however, I choose to stay home and watch a very nice chic flick just to let the day pass. Probably because I already run the scenes in my head, expecting and then ended up feeling disappointed because none of what I imagined came to reality. Typical. And downright suicidal. But somehow its different for me this year. I have learned my lesson.
This year apart from being able to accomplish most of my to-do’s for the day, I had fun playing the Valentine games in our floor, had a great lunch with my close friend Rhea and for the first time in my entire life received a dozen red roses. I wasn’t expecting anything not because I think of myself as the biggest Valentine loser but simply because for the first time in my entire life too, no one occupies a space in my heart apart from God, family and a few friends. I know, I would’ve told myself I’m not normal for not liking anyone but you know what, it is actually liberating. I am not expecting, I am not always on my toes thinking that I might lose the interest of someone special to me, I am not worrying all the time. I can sleep better at night and I wake up looking forward to another day of productivity and learning.
There’s just one glitch though, the person who gave the flowers didn’t leave any card and told the guard too not to mention where it came from. So I practically have no idea who to thank. I would probably post my thank you note in Facebook just incase that person is one of my friends there.
Anyway, I am currently doing non-delivery work so I might post more blogs moving forward.
Nota bene: To the person who gave the flowers
Thank you so much for being so thoughtful. I love the flowers. You made this year’s valentine memorable. I hope someday I can return the favor. Not give you flowers but make you smile and be happy.
