Valentine's Day n Other Days - II

The name of this post is ‘Valentine’s Day n Other Days’, so it would be gross injustice if I don’t write anything about The Day. I think if there is anyone who is really happy on this day are the greeting cards and chocolate companies and not to forget about the mobile operators as they merrily play the cupid and mislead young couples that this was the only day worth eating all the chocolates, presenting each other with cards and of course talking to your loved ones on the phone, in the event of having a gulf of distance between the talking parties. Looking from another perspective, as a matter of fact, the Day is also a pretext of shedding your inhibitions and go and say whatever you have always wanted to say to that someone special. You could do this animatedly some other day as well, but then it would only be animated and devoid of all the sheen and hoopla surrounding the Day. As John Paul Young once sang..

Love is in the air

Everywhere I look around

Love is in the air

Every sight and every sound

And I don't know if I'm being foolish

Don't know if I'm being wise

But it's something that I must believe in

And it's there when I look in your eyes

And so on..

Again, if things really didn’t go the way that you had wanted them to go, you could always say that you were just plainly invigorated with the love in the air :o)

Au revoir
