Crappy Valentines Day!

I was not really a big fan of this day, however due to its commercialization, its quite difficult to ignore it now a days because all of the sudden, flowers, hurriedly being delivered to its respective recipients, or people wearing red (errrkkkk....) or those who greet you in their most perky manner to remind you what day it was.
Any way guilty as charged I did get into the hype a little, this morning I texted and sent some of my close friends Valentine greetings, some of them replied with sweet thoughts some with sarcastic comments, while there was one that really turned my V day upside down, the message reminded me how shallow this day has become, or it really was, that we have to set a particular day just to remind us to love.

I guess for people like me who has seen the good the bad and the ugly side of love, Valentines is nothing but just another ordinary day, except that heart shaped cut outs hang almost everywhere, and that prices of flowers has gone 3 times its original price and the majority of the restaurants in the metro will be full of tables for two, and that chocolates will be exempted from the diet list and Motels will definitely be fully booked!

Text Message: (received 10:00am 2/14/06)
"In life, God doesn’t give you the people you want,
Instead he gives you the people you need, to teach you, to hurt you, to love you
and make you exactly the way you should be, Happy Hearts day!

I really don’t know why, but this message didn’t quite agree with me, why would God stop you from loving someone, why would he let you hurt, for what, in order for you just to realize what true love really is, maybe its true, maybe because a lot of us has been blinded by its true meaning or maybe a lot of has just used it and abused it to excuse us from the stupid things we’ve done in our lives.

Van Gogh and Lautrec





Found this Paintings that really captured my attention ironically the titles of the painting has even hit me as hard,
Ive always believed that painters only paint what they really feel
and sometimes what they sense in their subjects.
there like mirrors to the soul as if they can just see right thru you!
and then all of a sudden your not alone
they can sense you and they feel you!
to know that someone else in this world knows how exactly you feel is amazing
to find that person! the artist of your soul is something
I guess some people dont know how lucky they are to find this,
and maybe they dont even know that they have it.
We live in a crazy world, and as the days go by
we grow farther and farther to each other
and the chance of finding the artist of your soul my never be.

some people think that im a cynic.
for not commenting so much when it come to the affairs of the heart
and for avoding the subject
I guess I my self dont even know the answers for sure
well who really does, except for the person who feels!


I guess maybe I am, who knows! if I find my artist I will know
