Today is Valentine's Day. Today is also a close friend cum housemate's birthday. Happy birthday to the sweet and thoughtful Valentine Baby!
More significantly, this is the first Valentine in my life that I got a dozen red roses and a box of chocolates for Valentine. Yes, I'm that un-privileged, and technically, I actually received them yesterday. However, I'm not complaining. Instead, I am rejoicing in sweet love. This is the first time that someone gave me a bouquet of a dozen red roses!
Sounds such a tired and un-special gift right, a box of chocolates and a bouquet of roses. A so cliche, outdated, tried and over-exhausted method. Yet, my heart cannot but feel love, and loved when I received them. Shocked as I were when they were delivered to me in the office, yet I felt so overwhelmed with the gesture. If I had not been in a public place, probably I would have cried, my heart touched. Furthermore, knowing that it couldn't have been that easy to place the order and make the arrangements for sender.
Everything happens for a reason. In all of the bad that we encounter each day, we tend to forget there are many more good things awaiting to be showered to us. A simple gesture of thanks and a delivery from a special someone, truly made my first friday the thirteenth of this year an easier time to pass. In a midst of frustrating crises, I rejoice to learn that I can be of help.
Happy Valentine's Day, Everyone and not forgetting, Happy Birthday Valentine, Ting.
