Every year, the shops are red, and the windows are turned into a sea of roses, gifts and jewelry. Commercial complexes are filled with attractive offers, and social media is filled with gifts and love messages. As if the entire world celebrates a day and found people remind that love is still present, even for only one day. But amid these appearances, the real question floats: Does love need an appointment for the calendar? Can it turn into a heavy commitment imposed by society on individuals?
On the days before this date, the stores are remarkably filled, and the demand for roses and jewelry is increasing, until some places are terrifyingly crowded. Not only is the stores, but the applications of roses have become a fundamental role in this phenomenon, as it provides countless options from the bouquets designed with mastery, whose prices vary between reasonable and exaggerated, until the gift is sometimes closer to a review more than an expression of feelings . These applications have become an integral part of this season, some of which are mastered in providing immediate delivery services, custom messages, and elegant boxes that reflect an “ideal” image of love, but sometimes they put the sent party under additional pressure, as if excellence in choice has become a sign of depth Feelings.
Some say Valentine’s Day is an opportunity to re -glow the relationship. It is a moment of calm in the midst of the fast life, the day that gives passion an exceptional space for expression. But on the other hand, others feel that it is just a social commitment that imposes itself strongly, as the exchange of gifts and celebrations becomes closer to custom, as if those who do not celebrate have sinned against his partner or seemed less interested.
The irony is that some relationships are built on this day more than they are based on normal days. There are those who are waiting for the occasion to announce his love or correct his mistake. Some see it as an opportunity to make up for what he missed throughout the year. But can love be one moment per year? Or is true love lies in the small details that occur without prior planning? In an interest, it is not required, in a good word said spontaneously, in constant support that is not related to a specific date.
But in the midst of this atmosphere, it is forgotten that there are other types of love more deeply and steadily. Love of the homeland, for example, does not need red roses to be real. He is in loyalty and belonging, to defend him and work for him without waiting for an occasion. The love of the family is that love that is not subject to seasonal discounts, and does not need advertising campaigns to remain. How many father and mother are waiting for a sincere love word from their children? How many family live in light of the constant interest, so you do not need a Valentine’s Day to feel the value of family bonding?
On the other hand, there is another cost for today, which is not related to feelings, but rather what the market imposes. The expenses are increasing in irrationally, especially with the approaching Ramadan season, which absorbs the budgets of families with its commercial offers. With this month approaching, the markets begin to provide discounts on food, while high gift prices are still burdened by some. Spending does not stop at gifts alone, but rather extends to restaurant reservations, hotel offers, and exorbitant costs that exhaust the budgets, which makes some wonder: Has love become an economic commitment more than a real feeling?
Frankly, many have become stuck between the necessity of celebrating and the pressure of costs, as the feelings turn into an invoice that enlarges year after year, without anyone asking: Is the feelings really measured by the size of spending? In the end, love is not a greeting card, and not a rose bought at the last minute. True love is not related to one day, but rather in moments that do not need evidence, nor a specific date. And if it is necessary for a feast for love, let it be every day is a feast in the heart of those who know how to love without accounts, without stressful costs, and without waiting for a recorded day in the calendar.
