St. Valentines

I don't agree with today. I don't agree with Mother's and Father's day either. You should love and cherish those you care for everyday, and celebrate it just the same. I think, this year I'm going to stop celebrating holidays I don't agree with. It's hard to do that because of family but, I'm gonna see how it goes. Christmas and Easter for example, I'm not Christian and I'm definitely not a Jesus lover so why do I need to involve myself in these holidays. I'm always broke around Christmas, therefore I cannot buy gifts. Gifts, on the other hand, I very much enjoy giving. I consider myself a good shopper and I prefer personal things and I just generally love spoiling the people I care about. Birthdays are something I have high regards for, even though I say people should get the same amount of love everyday, I think everyone deserves their one day to themselves. And that particular day is the most personal to you. Maybe that's just me and my interests in astrology. I heard that the most important holiday in Satanism is your own birthday, kind of funny. Anniversaries as well, are something I care about, at least to acknowledge them. I like numbers and I remember dates incredibly well. They are more personal than Valentines or Mother's day. I stopped celebrating St. Patrick's day a few years ago, lost a "friend" from it. That's the stupidest bullshit ever. Sorry my priority in pride ranks differently than yours asshole. I'm more Irish than anything but I don't give a shit. I'm a student, hard of hearing, female, daughter, sister, human, etc. Irish isn't on the top of my list, sorry to disappoint. Wow, I'm ranting. Anyways, I'm going to try not to give into religiously dominated holidays and impersonal ones from now on. But you'll know for sure if it's your birthday, I'll be sure to wish you a happy one :) By not participating, I mean that I won't be buying gifts, but I'll say it ["Merry Christmas", etc] back to someone if they are celebrating it. I'm not gonna be the stupid angry child refusing to have any part in it, absolutely not. But I'm basically not going to spend my money on it. I have the whole year to buy people stuff if I wish. So yeah, that's my plan.
Also, happy birthday Arizona!!
