This is a day
filled with love or hate,

Heart shaped cards
Colored in lots of bright red
Or watching sappy...
Does anyone remember when Valentine’s Day consisted of just a box of chocolates and a bouquet of flowers for your significant other?
Today, the consumption for gifts have become ridiculous with presents of all sorts. Every store has at least one aisle dedicated to this special day; the...
What does Valentine’s Day consist of for a couple?
The typical Valentine's date involves romantic places such as the beach, the park, or a restaurant for dinner, but what makes it special is to have that exclusive lover on this unique day I’d like to call Love.

Dear you,
I’m looking into your eyes and they’re telling me the most heart-wrenching story. A story of strife, stress, and loss. A story that seems to go on and on, one that has no ending. A story that’s been forcing you to lose countless hours of sleep for weeks now, causing the bags...

Valentine’s Day is all about love. So in the spirit of this day, I suggest that we all make an effort to love others.

Valentine's day is one of the most exciting and anxiety filled days of the year. Many people feel pressure from the big day and aren’t quite sure what they should do for their significant other. It can be quite a challenge to come up with the perfect date, but ladies and gentlemen, I have got you...

Never in a million years did I think that I would be married at 20 years old. I was supposed to just think that boys had cooties for the rest of my life.
Yeah, right. Most of us know it doesn’t work that way, and have an undeniable desire...

Recently, I was complaining to a buddy of mine that I couldn’t remember the last time I went on an actual date. He suggested that I try OK Cupid, since he was going to have a go at it himself.
