I slightly remember asking my mum why I shouldn’t put my hand in hot water, she said because it’s hot and it would burn you.  Been a child, I had not experienced what it means to be burned so the moment she turned her back to me, in my hand went into the bucket of hot water.

MY MESSAGE OF LOVE

The history of today has so many versions but one common message resonates through them all; the message of love. Today is a day were we are reminded by every medium possible to share, and show love. Let’s be reminded that we are not restricted to just a loved one or family. We can decide to visit orphaned children, widows or the elderly in homes and spend time with them and buy them gifts. They don’t have to be expensive, stick with what you can afford. The act is more cherished than the gift. Go out of your way and make someone happy today and I promise you that the smile on their face will put a smile on yours too. Valentine’s Day is just one day.  We should remember that showing love should be a part of our everyday life.  Don’t wait for Valentine’s Day to show love. Show love to everyone, everyday.   Happy Valentine’s Day
