Friendship

I have just finished watching Mean Girls 2 today and pondered about it for quite awhile. I admit it was kind of mediocre compared to the first Mean Girls movie which starred Lindsay Lohan. The Plastics were not that pretty, and the clothes were not that fancy and stunning as I have expected. But there was something about the movie that I really like -- that is, the classic lesson that true friendship is not bought. I know its cheesy but it truly is something that you cannot just buy, you need to plant it. 

In life, you will get to meet a lot of people. Many of them would just come and go, while only a chosen few would greatly play a significant part in your life. Many would say choose your friends wisely for they will reflect who you are, with which I totally disagree. Genuine friendship is not just all about the similarities between you and your friends. You'll know when its true if it does not discriminate despite the obvious differences. It accepts the person for simply being who they are without attempting to change him or her to become one of them.

Through the years, I am blessed to have found wonderful people who showed me what friendship really is all about. In spite of our opposing views and personalities, we managed to remain friends all this time. We may not see each other that often yet we never fail to make time for each other. They say  friendship is like the wind, you may not always see it, but you sure can feel it!

Valentines Day

February is the time of the year when we get to see more beautiful flowers, chocolates, and other yummy treats wherever we may go. It has been a tradition all over the world to celebrate and express our love for one another on this special love month. Valentine's day which is an annual celebration is held specifically on the 14th of this month. Lovers would showcase their love in the form of romantic dinner dates and quite expensive presents. 

However, did you ever wonder how it all began? Well, I did. Who would have thought that this can be traced back to the early medieval period. This romantic and intimate celebration turned out to have started to be religious in nature. St. Valentine was believed to be a priest who was martyred back in Rome. Historical facts reveal that there was no romantic element present in his early biographies to start with. The question of how his name was associated with romantic love might still be a mystery until now. Some sources would say that at one point when marriage was somewhat prohibited, St. Valentine would secretly perform marriage ceremonies which caused his imprisonment. Before he was beheaded, they said he himself made the very first valentine card addressed to a young woman whom he loved. 

At present, though we may not have enough facts to rely on how this special day really started, I am just thankful  they actually came up with this special occasion that is meant for love and for love alone.  

Happy Heart's Day everyone!
