commercialization and valentines day!!:)

This is the first time I have been in love on Feb 14th. I don't like receiving flowers. I don't like All the chocolates in a chocolate box. I wouldn't wear fancy jewelry and I will not eat Anything at a fancy restaurant. So I Thought Valentine's Day Wasn't for me and I Still feel that way.I don't want " what a woman's want for Feb 14th." I will not wait until Feb 14 to show my guy how much I love him and he doesn't wait either. So tomorrow I will do what I did last year. Celebrate Feb 14th for the best mob hit Ever and leave all the over priced , empty gestures to others.

we are very busy all along every day.there are the speicial days to exit,we may express our blessing or send out our kindly feelings. the existent is reasonable.

Correct. With all the marketing strategies those businesses have, they made a big fuzz about it, so much so , that the real meaning is being overlooked. It's as if Valentine's day means a gift should be given by the lovers to each other, when they could just express it in some ways that wouldn't cost them a bit like a hug or just a simple walk in the park.

Well I think almost all major holidays like Christmas and New Year, occasions, festivities, even sports events and the rest are all affected by commercialization, guess it's human nature to make a buck or two or maybe occasions won't really be attractive or successful without commercialization because this is where sponsors come in. My personal opinion is we make it according to what we want to make it to be and should not feel intimidated, occasions are a personal thing so just enjoy and celebrate it the way you want.
