Re: Valentines Day

~ February 12, 2008 at 13:10 by mr_romantic (Views: 31)

Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
With no one here but me
More loneliness
Than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I'll send an SOS to the world (2x)
I hope that someone gets my (3x)
Message in a bottle


Valentines is a terrible time of year for many people, media and advertising rely heavily on the idea that you must have someone else in order to be happy. If you are alone on this holiday, it somehow means that you are worthless, an outcast. Not so my friend. You are as worthwhile in a relationship as out.

Walked out this morning
Don't believe what I saw
A hundred billion bottles
Washed up on the shore
Seems I'm not alone at being alone
A hundred billion casatways
Looking for a home


That said, instead of being bitter, put the holiday to good use by reaching out to someone else who is alone. It doesn't have to be romantic to be meaningful, (unless you like the person) keep the tone friendly and just let them know they're thought of. Anonymous flowers and gifts are great for this sort of thing. Chances are good you'll make their week and cheer yourself up in the process.
