Valentine's Day - Let's get Cupid a pair of new glasses

Yes, it's that time of the year again, the most commercialized day of the year: Valentines Day. I'll be straightforward, I'm not a fan of Valentines day, rather, I don't really care. Not because I'm hating on all the couples or anything, I'm happy in my current situation, I'm seeing someone, it's chilled, all is good. In fact I think Valentine's day is a nice occasion to celebrate love and remind those you care about that you love them (which, truthfully, should be done daily, but people like to celebrate things rarely, once a year, when they're told to celebrate it... humans, tsk.. ). Anyway, enough rambling, essentially I think Valentine's day is nice for the idea of letting the person you love know it, but I do think it's become waay too commercialized. It's been over a week that everyday on the radio, EVERY-SINGLE-STATION goes on about what will you get your loved one, what will you do in the evening, this place is organizing this, that place is organizing that. Well, what if I just want to remind the person I love, I love them, by cooking dinner and cuddling on the sofa? The celebration of love should be advertised, not the material side, the "buying of stuff". At least this is how I see it, what are your thoughts?

In any case, here's some inspiration for a pretty outfit, whether you're going out with your loved one, or with your friends. With a little black dress you never go wrong, add some pretty jewelery to give some light, and off you go! If you want to do soemthing a little different, I've fallen in love with this cute little pink dress, the black lace detail is lovely and very elegant!

But, if you decide to celebrate Valentine's day with everyone's favourite boys, Ben&Jerry, then you should get your inspiration from the wonderful Bridget Jones ;) Oh and if you're just a bit like me, make sure you have Ben&Jerry in at least in three different flavours! That's what I did last year, we had one fabulous night, the three of us, I tell you ;)

Lots of Love to you all <3 br="">

He kissed her

"He kissed her. A kiss about apple pie a la mode with the vanilla creaminess melting in the pie heat. A kiss about chocolate, when you haven’t eaten chocolate in a year. A kiss about palm trees speeding by, trailing pink clouds when you drive down the Strip sizzling with champagne. A kiss about spotlights fanning the sky and the swollen sea spilling like tears all over your legs."

How do you know when enough is enough?

That's when I first realized it. I was in an S & M relationship 


with Mr. Big.

In love relationships, there is a fine line between pleasure and pain.

In fact, it's a common belief that a relationship without pain...

...is a relationship not worth having.

To some, pain implies growth.

But how do we know when the growing pains stop...

...and the “pain-pains” take over?

Are we masochists or optimists, if we continue to walk that fine 

line?

When it comes to relationships...

...how do you know when enough is enough?

Words...

(Found on google.com) 

"Maybe I’m a fool… but I think that no matter what words say, hearts speak to each other independently. But we focus so much on words and their meaning that they become so loud we forget to listen to our hearts. What isn’t said but is felt, should have greater meaning than simple letters put together." 

I've had this thoughts on my mind for a while now... and thinking over personal experiences I have a feeling we have reached a point (we as in us, people) where we've forgotten that there is a lot more to words and what lies behind them, such as the things left unsaid. Here I'm talking mainly about relationships. Why is everyone so obsessed with saying the 3 words, I - love -you. I feel today people say it with out meaning it, simply because it's what you do when, say, you're in a relationship. But is it really meant? Shouldn't we give more importance to other little things, which don't explicitly say "I love you" but mean it. Little things like, listening to you, being there for you when you need someone there and all these little things which show how someone cares... Love is more than saying "I love you". Love is love, it doesn't need explaining, nor proof... but why are we always looking for proof?
