Cupid Lust
Quote for the Week (2/16 - 2/20)
"Cupid let's us
Lust Just
For the day and leaves us"
So, I didn't want to hate on anyone's Valentine's Day plans, but I really don't like what Valentine's Day has become. On the surface, it's a day of expressing love and adoration for that special someone. But it's extreme and pronounced if that love is not consistently expressed throughout the rest of the month, season, year. So we make a HUGE fuss over one day...but it's just a lustful day.
I don't mean lust exclusively in a sexual way. Lust, in the essence of it's definition is self consuming. That is not limited to be sexual. It's a simple principle, "Love Gives, Lust Gets".
People spend $200, $300 or more on Valentine's Day but there is very little emotional and spiritual investment in that relationship for the entire year. They spend that money to GET a nice evening...but what is the quality of the lifetime of the union?
Like I said, I didn't want to send this on Saturday and piss on everyone's Valentine's plans.
However, I am here to challenge us AFTER the money has been spent, the romance has been had, the love has been made...what's next?
When's the next date?
What do you do to make sure that Valentine's Day is not a once a year expression of affection in our marriages?
For the record, yes, Susan and I did celebrate our love on February 14th. We got a nice meal, headed back to the bedroom and chilled. We didn't need to spend a lot of money on a day because we've been investing on a marriage for over 2 and 1/2 decades.
Please share your thoughts.
Am I being a little extreme in my position or no?
What are your thoughts on Valentine's Day and life after it comes and goes?
