RA says Happy New Love Day to all friends and family *lol* The word “V” is a very sensitve one in our culture. I remember years, years back, it was kinda liberal when the “V” word was acceptable. Nowadays, retailers and especially restaurants have been warned on using such word. However the Happy Heart’s Day slogan was given the green light for those establishments who want to highlight their promotion.

There’s always a controversy whenever Malays celebrate this particular occasion. Then again this is a very subjective topic to talk about and I don’t want to go into depth of this topic as I could be quoting or saying the wrong things and I get the fingers being pointed at *lol* All I can say is that Muslims are not encourage to celebrate V-day.

For the record, I did celebrate one or twice long, long time ago *lol* and this was back when laws weren’t strict or perhaps we had lack of awareness or education on what’s acceptable and what’s not. Anyway, that was long time ago and I have grown out of it.

For those celebrating it especially the non-Muslims, don’t use this day as an excuse to express your love or feelings. Love is unconditional and love should be celebrated every moment. Maybe those who are shy (like me) might take advantage of such days like this *lol* For me, I’m living in self-love and from there, I’m able to love others as well. Sometimes I feel love is an over-rated word and I rather feel it than say or express it.

So today I’m gonna love myself even more and do more self appreciation and be grateful for the things that have come my way and appreciate the abundance and the friendship I have gained along the way. That’s my mini-intention for today 😀

I woke up pretty early today to catch the Real Madrid-Manchester United match and I couldn’t sleep after.
