8th of march

spring is just around the corner, and its signs can be noticed quite randomly in many places. with spring, comes the ’8th of march’, which is recognized widely as the ‘international women’s day‘. so with this occasion…i would like to wish you all ‘happy women’s day’ and offer a few pictures of a spring symbol, snowdrops:


this day is also recognized as mother’s day…i would also like to wish all the mothers out there ‘happy mother’s day’…and to my mother…’happy mother’s day and i hope that next year will be better than the last’. if i don’t get around to go outside and find a few snowdrops as the ones we usually had in our flower garden, then i hope this next one will suffice until i manage to bring you a few real ones.


i will also like to wish all the future mothers a warm ‘happy mother’s day’

and to my sister, as well as my cousins…happy 8th of march

and this next one i’d like offer it to a special someone…

valentine’s day


as many of you are probably aware of, the 14th of february is approaching…yes, valentine’s day is yet again almost knocking at the door. the day when we’re told that we should wake up in the morning and proclaim our love to that special someone. although it is quite admirable to carry your heart on your sleeve and be willing to share your feelings with that special someone; but being told that you have to do it on a specific day? yet, millions of ‘lovers’ will wake up on the 14th, purchase (if they haven’t already) some sort of a gift and use it to ‘show’ their ‘love’. without getting into a discussion of love and how would one show it…i have a bit more of an issue with doing it on one particular day because a consumerist society dictates it.

let’s put it this way on one extreme, if 364 days a year one doesn’t acknowledge their feelings towards that special someone…then how would it matter if on the 14th of february one purchases something to represent their ‘love’? would you call that ‘love’ or ‘affection’? then again, if one does acknowledge their feelings and does show his/her ‘love’ towards that special someone the other 364 days of the year…then the 365th one won’t be different…because that person would find a way to show that special someone how much they mean regardless of the date.

arguably due to busy schedules, stress, etc., most will fall somewhere in between the two options stated above…however, the date, or the endless ‘valentine’s day’ commercials, should not be the reason(s) as to why one should acknowledge their affection towards that special someone. being able to share the feelings, show that special someone that you are thinking about them regardless of the time, day, date, will have more significance…the only reason required to share one’s feelings…are one’s feelings…

one might argue that tomorrow is simply just ‘a celebration as a couple’…fair enough…however, shouldn’t each morning be a reason to celebrate because one gets the chance to see the smile of that special someone…one gets yet another chance to hold and touch that special someone? shouldn’t every day be special because one shares it with that special someone? so yes, one should celebrate ‘valentine’s day’, but one should celebrate it because they get to share it their loved one as they should enjoy and cherish each and every other day…not because it’s the 14th of february or because of the name the western society gave it…

a new morning

as all things come, they come based on an idea. an idea developed during random and usually mention-less actions. this, came rather while browsing through some pictures and a post on a blog. a morning, usually hated by most publicly, loved by all secretly. morning, the beginning of a new day. a new day in which you can do it all over again, regardless if you got it wrong the day before. a new day when all the mistakes from your previous tries can be forgotten and replaced with euphoric memories.

morning brings a new day, when you can cherish something for the n’th time yet not be repetitive, a new day when you can feel the rays of the sun as if they are saying ‘good morning’, a new day when you can tell the person you love ‘i love you’ yet again and feel as if it’s the first time, a new day when you can look in your loved ones eyes and get lost in their eternity as if tomorrow won’t come. don’t waste the morning, it’s the perfect time to say the ‘little things’, to tell her you love her and to tell her you she’ll be in your arms tomorrow morning when she wakes up.
