VALENTINE'S DAY: A DAY OF ADVOCACY

Love means care and personal affection. It is a continuum, not a one stop adventure. If you wait for Valentine's Day to show love, then, yours lack stable roots!

These days, Valentine's Day love is more or less like an artistic exhibition. A lot of unreal things are happenings or misrepresentations take place on that Day. 

For instance having someone's time might not be true measure of love. You might just be the only one available and accessible!

Some might just take advantage of whoever is on ground or around to score a revenge love point such that when reconciliation is reached, your calls will not be picked anymore or picked but at convenience!

Here is another point to note: Gifts for sex, or sex for gifts, is waywardness. During Valentine's celebration, this type of transaction is common everywhere!

Exchanging gifts can be a proof love, but this not in always the case. It took a gift, "Converse All Stars size 10" for CIA's agent Bill Oxley to get through and kill Bob Marley of blessed memory with cancers. Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss, and Brutus killed Julius Caesar, his bossom friend, too!

If you must kiss today, therefore, know who is kissing you. If you give gifts or accept any,  make, make sure not is coming with strings attached!

If you do not get any gift from your lover, do not mistaken that for lack of commitment. Maybe, he or she is constraint, especially, in these difficult time. You can extend something valuable to him or her yourself!

It will be selfishness expecting gifts from others without planning to extend the gesture to someone too. 

If you are a beneficiary, then, try and be a benefactor to another person too. The best way to give, is to expect nothing in return anyway!

In the words of Nexyed Coaching Platform, "Love is a universal solution to all human beings' problems. It heals wounds, mends broken hearts, unite enemies, and encourage growth. Love is all we need everyday and everywhere." Yes, genuine love has that magic wand!

Love must be harmless, selfless and sustainable through practical understanding, tenderness and warm. 

Valentine's Day is memorial day of advocacy and reinforcement of great virtues. It is professed a day of love in practice not theory. Therefore, make it your day and let love reigns supreme as the celebration unfolds. 

May you never be a victim of a Special Day of love, but partaker of its memorable gains. Happy Valentine's Day!
