Son: Dad, I’d like to marry my girlfriend. I love her very much and I want to spend the rest of my life with her as my wife.
Father: How do you know it’s true love?
Son: Well, it’s true love because when I was kissing her goodbye last night their dog bit my leg and I didn’t know about it until I get home. (this was part of last Sunday’s homily….)
February is commercialists month, the time of year when affection translates to many material things. Every year the same…dinners, flowers, diamonds, and...iphones…(upps not yet! Brack are you reading this? ‘just a heads up).
I don’t understand why men choose to express their feelings on Valentines day where everywhere is crowded, when prices are all jacked-up, flowers especially. Love can be expressed 365 days a year, I prefer it that way. I’m sure there are lots of women out there who prefer to be appreciated and loved every day of the year, not just on Valentines. Yet still, women are women…that’s why commerce rejoices…women loved getting gifts and flowers anytime of the year, specially Valentines, me included.
I remember last year Brack got me tulips. I kept asking how much it was and when he wouldn’t tell me, I told him he should have just given me the money instead. He was irritated and told me he will never again give me flowers. A few days ago while walking on the street with lovely roses sold at the sidewalks, I asked if he’s giving me flowers on Valentines, he said….”if there’s a good deal!” Hahaha!!! I truly love this man!
By the ways, February 2nd is National Wear Red Day. The day when Americans nationwide will wear read to show their support for women’s heart disease awareness. I’d like to wear read this day.
