#like i could eat pancakes whenever i want but i still like shrove tuesday!

I have my criticisms of Valentine's Day, but one that I'm starting to change my mind about is 'Why do you need a specific day to show someone you love them? You can do that whenever'. Because yeah, that's true. But it's also true of Mother's Day and Father's Day, of birthdays, of almost any holiday. No, you shouldn't need a specific day to treat your partner (or friend or anyone else you love), but there's no harm in having an extra excuse to celebrate. And if your partner only makes an effort on Valentine's Day... That's not the day's fault.

#valentine's day #organic home grown content #again there are other things i dislike about the holiday (commercialism... amatonormativity...) #but i don't think a holiday loses its worth because you could do what you do on that day at any time #like i could eat pancakes whenever i want but i still like shrove tuesday!
