A Valentine Anniversary ❤️

Today marks a year for my blog. 

I can hardly believe it😭❤️. And neither can I believe that I almost didn't remember 💀😹

When I finally let myself think past this year's Valentine's rush, I realized that today is significant for me, because this is the first time I've committed to anything😅

I started my blog last year, with what I thought I wanted from a guy.

And then after I wrote it, I guess I expected what I wanted to come right after.

Well, that was a fail wasn't it?😪

What I have come to terms with is that you can't always have everything you want. Especially when it comes to what you want in the opposite gender. People always say there's no definite recipe to love, and even though I've yet to internalize that, it's awfully true. You can't make yourself love someone because you think they have everything you want.  Sad, but true.

I wrote what I wanted because I wanted to breathe my ideal guy into existence, but you never really get to choose who you love, and neither do you have much control over who loves you.

Which is why we suffer from unrequited love.

Which, is sometimes okay.🤷🏾‍♀️

Because we have to understand what it means to be in that position to love and not to be loved back with the same zeal, so that we can appreciate love where we find it.

My last year's valentine was about romance, but this year is about love for me in general.

It isn't easy to see valentine's day for what it is, because it's easier to sum it up with presents and sex and romance.

But it's also about love among people.

Friends.

Family.

The things we love to do.

The things that we love.

It's a day when we appreciate the presence of the things that we cherish

It's like Christmas in February, without all the preparations ❤️. 

I hope we all get to appreciate and to be appreciated by the ones we love today❤️

Happy Valentines day ❤️

Thank you for all the support and the love that I have received since I started Unfabulous ✨

I am eternally grateful ♥️

I wish everyone all the love they deserve ✨
