Glimmering faces in the ladies compartment....hands full of flower bouquets.... teddy bears sold off the shelves... couples holding hands little more tightly than usual and with exceptional adored gaze... single eyes watching all this with mixed emotions of jealousy, solitude, hope and dream...the gliding atmosphere of the valentine day!
Nothing can be more touchy than celebration of love for a young heart. I always loved pampering myself with ice creams, chocolates and buying gift for myself on Valentine day even as a single!
'It's not our culture...why to celebrate such a day! As if you do not love your valentine otherwise!...' Thankfully I never get dodged by such formidable logic to loose the zest of celebration. I can consider celebration as my hobby....
.....celebration of first rain of the season, celebration of Friday night, celebrating new week, new day new, new task of the moment.....the feel of celebration elevates the mind due to the sheer feeling- something special. Eternally life itself is a grand celebration! There is nothing that can match life and we have one! Isn't it a reason enough to celebrate every moment! However it becomes like the Adam and Eve in the all perfect Eden garden; we start feeling all the things around, our condition of living very banal. Celebrations help us to left our souls from this gloom and reminds us to enjoy- Celebrate. Celebrations need not be grand, need not be material. In fact only the thought, ' today is the day of celebration and to feel part of the celebration' is efficient enough to elevate the mood. Celebration with a right attitude is nothing but a form of expressing gratitude. Gratitude towards what we had, what we have and what we will have.... so never miss your chance to celebrate...in your own way.
