valentines day

Hum..... Let me see what comes to my mind when I think of valentine’s day.

The word “valentines” was introduced to me when I had just stepped into college, one fine day I find all girls with red roses, girls because I studied in a girls only college. And I ask one of my friends and then they say- don’t u know today is valentine’s day, where the boy if he likes the girl gives her a rose and gifts and propose to her , and then the story of St. valentine. Archie’s used to be flooded with Valentines Day cards typically colour red and roses and huge cards, and teddy bears and stuffs like that. And then I went home and told my mom about it., then years later when I was in my degree college in hostel the cupid stuck me, and I wanted to feel loved, or may be boredom, so I sat and made a lot of paper hearts, colour them and wrote love songs and hung them in my room, I was so found of heart shaped balloons, that I filled my room with those.
Ever since many Valentine’s Day have come and gone.... but so far haven’t found one person with whom i can celebrate it for many years together. Haven’t found one person who is genuine or like the way that i look out for a man in.... apparently we live in the fast paced ,self centred world where there is no concept of belongingness.

I so wish I was born in the previous generations... I love the way that the people were committed to each other to share their lives...ah
So all said and done since I c myself without a human partner to share the day, I have decided to celebrate it with my children, who so badly want to play with me, who long for me being with them, playing with them, caressing and cuddling them. I guess they are worthwhile for me to spend my day with. Ah the joy that they have when they see me, the tremendous wagging of the tail along with the body, they picking up stuff in the mouth and coming to me to play with them. They rubbing them self against me, I being surrounded by them where ever I go.....
I have all this then why do I look at a human for all this, who can only give momentary pleasure or joy with an intention at the back of their brains???
Do I need one? Do I have to look out for one? Will I find one? ....... are the questions unanswered till another valentine’s day comes along

When my cats are in labor, feels like I am in labor

Today my girl was in labour and I feel very sorry to see her go through this. a few minutes of pleasure, and such suffering for her
Wish even humans were put out of their misery like animals
I have been watching how we communicate with our pets, we call them our daughters and sons, and children, a true animal lover would go out of the way to make their children happy.
Heard this man say i need to take her on a drive for a min of 4 or 5 rounds every day, otherwise she is not happy and not even his own children have demanded that from him. If a small thing happens to the pet the whole household people are tensed about it and they turn the house upside down, how much importance is given to these people?
