Unfortunately I'll be seperated from my valentine this year but naturally, my thoughts and prayers are with her.

I dont really care much for valentines day. I let my wife know I love her all year long... Not just one day...
Depend on it. God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supply. He is too wise a God to frustrate His purposes for lack of funds, and He can just as easily supply them ahead of time as afterwards, and He much prefers doing so.
- J. Hudson Taylor
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

I'm waiting for the day after Valentine's. That's the day all the candy goes on sale.

Comrades, valentine's day is a capitalistic, self-indulgent holiday. For my valentine's day, I shall march proudly sporting the soviet flag outside my local Walmart. You all should do the same!

I don't really care for Valentine's Day. It's depressing when you're single because you see all these couples around... yeah...

I just remind myself that whenever I'm praying (me or anyone else), you're praying to a single 33 year old adult.

So I'm not too worried about looking for a girlfriend or getting married or anything of that matter.

^ LoL. good idea carneman, but the truth of the matter is that alot of us are cynical and miserable. ;) but...s'ok. i agree with the person who said they're waiting for v-day candy to go on sale. discount chocolate? heck yes! (all i need is more acne, but hey..at least it's stress relief. ^_^;;)

Well, I'm busted up and unhappy because I'm in the wrong country to be getting the chocolates!! Yeah, that's another thread, too.

Actually, I like getting an annual reminder that I am one lucky dude and need to tell my wife that I know how lucky I am.

But to all the depressed ones... nobody ever goes through Valentines day "alone." Hang in there. I was right there with you, once, and I'm confident you'll be telling some other young folks the same thing, some day.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May He cause His face to shine upon you.
May He lift up His countenance and grant you peace.

Discount Chocolate! And USSRGirl's idea has good merit: I bet marching outside Walmart with a Soviet flag would reduce the volume of candy bought there on Valentine's day leaving more for me to buy the next day!

That thread wasn't for not caring about Valentine's Day, it was for not caring about being single on Valentine's Day. Big difference. ;)

But what if they got you red roses? It supports the struggling masses working in the florist shop so that one day they might break their capitalistic pig slavedrivers in two with their new-found empowerment. And besides, they're roses! And they're red! Stick a card in it that says, "This card Marx my love for you" and that's dictator romance right there.

This reminds me. Our pastor had a wonderful children's sermon theme yesterdy for Valentine's day. The old testament lesson had been the story of Na'aman and Elisha, and the Gospel was one of Jesus' leprosy healings. The pastor had told the children that the Israelite slave girl had given Na'aman a "Valentine" by telling him where he could find a cure, and how Elisha and Jesus had given Valentines to the lepers they healed (by healing them), and finished by suggesting that the children are "giving Valentines" to everyone they give help to, and bring God's love to.
Maybe a slight stretch as a metaphor, but I think he did a good job with it.
May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May He cause His face to shine upon you.
May He lift up His countenance and grant you peace.

I am... apathetic.

Sure, I'm single (again) on valentines day... and of course, the world is going to flaunt that in my face... but let's put that info aside and concentrate on more important things:

1) Even though I work at Blockbuster and couples are going to be flooding the store that night looking for a romantic movie to watch... I'll be working in the morning, so I don't have to deal with it.

2) I'll be in class in the evening, so I really don't have to put up with it.

3) I'm already in love with the One who will never cease loving us all.

Therefore, let's not concentrate on whether or not we have a significant other to spend the day with. Instead, let's remember the love of God. Let's spend Valentine's Day with Him. Sound like a plan?

I, for one, am VERY happy that it's Valentine's Day. I do not have a boyfriend, and I am not sadistic about it nor am I pining over it. I'm celebrating it with my family, and that's good enough for me.
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.

Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of Heaven, my Treasure Thou art.

High King of Heaven, my victory won,
May I reach Heaven’s joys, O bright Heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

Ouch. How did *that* happen? It seems terribly ironic to have that happen on Valentine's -- was this something set up before?
