No, no, no.... Valentine's Day is not only for lovers ... But also for those family and friends who care for each other throughout the year!!! You all have been so caring and loving me for who I am [Wonder Woman, of course] And I wish all of you a Happy Valentine's Day!

I am okay to receive gifts and presents if you want to give me.

So, what have you got from your loved ones this year?

It is all so out of proportion and commercialised these days. Just another excuse for shops to bombard us with stuff that think we should buy

Did you receive any gifts?

@Jlyn10 Yes I absolutely agree!

Something you made yourself would have come from the heart instead of from your bank account.

Nope but I hope to get one soon.

It's silly to buy presents on such an occasion. Better to have a self-made present done and people would appreciate it more.

But why do we need to set aside a day to show love? Can we not do it all the time?

@Jlyn10 Let's love every day and make every day special. A garment is held together by many stitches. Love is shown by daily acts and words.

Of course, we can show our love all the time. We do not need to set aside a day to show our love. Some people like to think that Valentine's Day is special and they can express more of their love on that day. But for me, I love and receive love everyday.

I never get any gifts from anyone in Valentine's Day but that's cool because I also never give anything

I celebrate it by just doing something with my friends or nothing at all. Just a normal day for me now

Yes, I guess it's just a normal day for many people. I could just celebrate Valentine's Day on any other day, doesn't have to be specifically on February 14.

You're welcome and happy belated Valentine's Day to you too. So, only lovers get the holiday and the rest have to work?

That's really unfair. We don't get a day off on that day here.

@Jlyn10 No, nobody gets the holiday, everybody works, but lovers exchange a gift or go out for dinner in the evening.

I beg to differ - Valentine's Day is specifically for lovers. That doesn't mean we can't show others that we love them on this day and any other day.

Our library here has an annual Valentine's event. It is all about taking care of or loving yourself. They have massages, aromatherapy, etc. All nice things one can have.

I like that.

Me too. My family is my Valentine, even my siblings and their family members. So I always spend lots of time with them, like going out for dinner or lunch, sometimes giving them a treat, and I am always thankful that they are part of my life.
