Page 45 of 366. Valentine's Day.

It's the first time in 8 years that I'm not scheduled for a date on the 14th of February. I'm not even bothered by that cause I know this day would be awesomely different. In fact, I did not anticipate anything special for today but good things come when you least expected it. 

At 12mn I was with the boys. We were together last night for the love of mmm.. BEER! Don't get me wrong, it is not just the drinking sessions that bring us together it is also the happiness we get while we laugh about anything silly and nasty under the sun and moon (most of the time our sessions are at night time). Our personal issues also made our friendship tighter. I believe that they are the people whom I can trust with everything. 

There are 3 advantages of being friends with guys. 
1. Less drama. They will smash you with harsh yet honest realities that are needed most of the time than soothing words. They'll beat you straight to the point. 
2. Less pressure. They are the most simple creatures ever. No arte! I can be make-up free!
3. I feel safer. I can risk walking through the deadly streets of Cubao very early in the morning (like 3am early) just to satisfy our Jolly spaghetti craving as long as they are with me.

The brothers I never had / early Valentine's day dates
The icing on top of the cake!

"I will always keep you in my heart. I'll never forget you because I love you." - This is the sweetest message I received today!

Our Valentine's day dinner
Valentine's day has always been a family thing. I cooked mom's spaghetti recipe. Bab bought cake. Mama cooked roasted chicken. Rams washed the dishes. I'm blessed to spend this day with them. They are the most special people in my life not just because I'm single right now. They've always been my inspiration and strength.

And to end this love-filled day, someone asked me if I'm ready to go out on a date again. Why not give it a try? God is the master of restoration, taking the broken and damaged and making them beautiful again.
