Everyone says valentine is for lovers and it maybe rightly so, but what do single people who are not in a relationship do on this 'romantic day'. Just out of curiosity. Is it just another day or it is a day to loathe those who are in love and receiving gifts

How many of you take time to treat yourself good and self-reflect on a daily basis?Do you honestly take time out in the day to close your eyes and set all worries aside. Truly do you just say I need personal time for me, to breath, to inhale and refuel.

Do people feel better about themselves after pushing their religion on others?Is there something gained by pushing your beliefs on other people? What makes people think this is okay?
