Wow! SINGLE AWARENESS DAY!
Well, Let me start off with, I think Valentine's Day is great, if you're happy you're single, or you're happy you're in a relationship. Thankfully, I am happy that I'm single. So my day or yesterday was great!
I am an avid sushi lover, and my family and I went to eat sushi! It was quite a nite, but that was yesterday... I can see that the general view of love is to love one person, and make that person feel special, and shower them with gifts. But let's look at a biblical perspective...

I am an avid sushi lover, and my family and I went to eat sushi! It was quite a nite, but that was yesterday... I can see that the general view of love is to love one person, and make that person feel special, and shower them with gifts. But let's look at a biblical perspective...
1 Corinthians 13
1 If I speak in the tongues[a] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[b] but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears.11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
Wow! I really love this chapter! It has so much of the right meaning of love. :D Love isn't only about a person, it's about everything around you! Loving God and loving others! Well, you ask me... well how was your Valentine's Day (maybe 0-1 will?) Well it was great! Got a donut! Got chocolate! Got a cupcake, which I didn't eat! Got a mini frosted brownie! It was a good day in all. I feel like I aced my Spanish Test, and I did lots of homework! I'll stop here... my mom wants me off the computer! SO Happy Valentine's Day! :D :D :D
