This year 2018's Valentine's Day falls on Ash Wednesday,
a very important day for Catholics and many Christians around the world. So how do you celebrate love and romance then?
You can have dinner during the night in some fancy restaurant
but certainly avoid meat in the servings. And very important is to attend the Holy Mass so that ashes in the shape of the cross will be drawn on your forehead.

Never expected to get a heart after biting a part of the apple.
Looking like it was planned or intended to form that way but I just bit it like I would when eating something.
There are some things in this world that happened when you didn't expect it.
You tried to ignore the first time thinking there was nothing to it but it bothered you in some way that was why you went back and examined it. And sooner realized there was more to it than meets the eye.
You two used to be very much in love with each other
that you were seeing yourself ending in church, married and living happily ever after.
But things turned out differently and you didn't fully know why.
Love was there but it never flourished for long even when you knew all along that love is immortal; it will never die. You worked hard for it, you prayed for it but still it didn't last for a lifetime; it died when you never wanted it to.
Love is never blind but sees the whole truth all the time.
It knows what's right and wrong and always favors the right. It doesn't dim its positive light so that everything is clear all the time.
Love is truthful and it doesn't believe in lies for it doesn't lie.
It doesn't approve wrongdoings but wants the person to change for good. Its purposes are clean, untainted, uncontaminated and unadulterated.
Getting involved with somebody married is a sin and the start of adultery.
It's an affair everyone condemns because it's wrecking home and family. It's such a shame and embarrassment.
Even nobody knows about it, still you feel guilty.
Your heart tells you to keep the affair, but your mind says it's wrong. You can't deny what you're mind is telling you. The longer it gets, the more hooked you are to the relationship and it will then be very hard to let go and start anew.
After months or years of being happy together,
it's all heartache and pain when relationship ends. It feels like dying when love's no longer around.
And it will be worse when you keep on loving
even knowing that there's no more hope of being loved back. You keep wishing and praying for the good old times but everything is fading away and will never come back.
Loving someone who doesn't love you is a big mistake.
You will only be breaking your heart for all time to come. You're forcing yourself into a relationship that will never be. It will all be heartache and pain.
Think things through over and over again to realize everything.
It's just a one-sided type of love and something that's all trouble. You'll just be a nuisance to the one you love making him/her irritated and uncomfortable with your presence.
You long for the one you call your true love or soulmate
or the one who is meant for you. But you have to wait and be patient. He/She is not coming to you soon, but just believe he/she will come.
And every time you meet someone who makes you happy,
makes you work harder than usual and inspires you, you feel he/she is the one but only to be disappointed later on because you are wrong and loving too soon.
When people don't love you, accept it and reflect on your whole being.
There must be something in you that they don't like. They will love you only when you deserve it.
That's why don't go around chasing after someone
and force him/her to love you back or at least show some care. It's not a good thing for someone to love you because he/she is forced. Let him/her love you back because he/she truly means it.
So many things about love that there's no end to describing it.
You don't fully understand it though but one thing's for sure - it's the most beautiful thing in this world!
Ever since we were young, love has been there all along.
We felt it by people around us and we let them feel it too. It's in everyone of us and there's nothing we can do to erase it. It's part of our existence, it's a component of our very nature.
This is another of those unusual and entertaining animal videos.
Animals flock with their own kind, but this time it's a different scene. A young duck is feeding the fishes in a pond.
This is something rare in the world and something that's worth celebrating.
It reminds us of the entire creation as part and parcel of the whole, that everyone and everything exists because of the others. Not one creation exists on its own.
How is this video possible?
Somebody trying to catch fish in the river and there it is, drinking the beer it is offered. Truly unbelievable!
I wonder what kind of fish that is, able to stay out of water that long.
And it's behaving as if it's tamed, but fishes in the aquarium don't act that way. They're still living their wild lives, getting away from humans as soon as possible.
