A kiss for Valentine Day....


Fifty years ago, when I was a young teenager, I knew nothing about Valentines Day was. Today if I forget 14th Feb, all my dears, honeys, darlings and one sweetheart that I know would be very upset with me.

I might not know what other part of the world think and feel about the important of Valentines Day, but for sure I could tell you a bit of how our Malaysian react.

To the typical China man or business man, Valentines Day is a commercial day. They have an opportunity to make more and sell more in products related to this occasion. One rose could be sold for ten dollars, while other day could be so cheap. All the restaurants are fully booked in advance, and couples won't mind to pay for whatever the asking price for the romantic dinning. 

The young girls who have got no boyfriend, would wish a Valentino might appear from no where. For the brave and naughty young boys, today is the day when they might approach the girls whom they have in mind. 

The young ladies in love, expect to be pampered and showered with more attention today. And for the gentlemen, you better get ready with all those roses, gifts and presents. 

Talk to the older grannies, they wish their old mates could still remember them or at least to hold their hands. Or if the old partners are romantic enough to say... "I love you!", all these grand mums will be the happiest women in town. So sad! These old men have all lost their jest of live. They rather be at the coffee shop sipping coffee and talking grand mother stories with all their old gangs instead.

What about me? To me Valentine day is a day of love. A day when I should be sharing my emotion, love and concern to everyone I know. If my parents were still around, I will tell them that I love them. To my family, they are my roses in heart. To all my female friends, they are all my dears in mind. To all my male friends, they are always very important to me. To all my readers, you are my inspirator and motivator. To my little darling, she is my diamond forever. I might not be able to be with all of you today but I can write to let all of you to read. I love you. Happy Valentine Day to everyone of you there.
