Tomorrow Feb 14 is special, not only 1 way but 2. For the general public it is Valentine's day. A day for love and romance. Not only for the dating and married couples but also for friends and the single. You can have fun with friends and you can even enjoy by yourself. It is important that you love yourself first too.
Couples all over are planning on what to do tomorrow. How to treat their special someone. Our how to have fun with friends and family. Some will go outing, some just eat ion a nice restaurant or simply prepare at home.
If you are single but happy about it, treat yourself. Have a spa or a manicure and pedicure. Relax at home with a good movie or book. Just because you are single does not mean you are lonely. Some people like it that way. They are happy.
It is how you define love. What makes you happy and and what makes you feel good is important. So do as you please. You do not need to be a couple to feel the love. You can even go out and do charity for the needy and elderly. Give small gifts of flowers and chocolates. They will appreciate it especially if they have been abandoned by their family. Beside feeling good about it, you have also given love to others and have let them feel it.

The priest burns the last year palms used during palm Sunday and the ashes are what they rub on the foreheads of the people
SOURCE
This is what the priests or lay ministers, nun and deacons say when they make the cross on the forehead of the person.

People will be having these black crosses on their foreheads for the rest of the day until they shower or wash their faces. Most shower before having it done so the whole day it will be on them.
So tomorrow I will make a simple lunch for everyone, fish and vegetables probably eggplant and eggs with ampalaya or bitter gourd. and chicken for my mom. So we will celebrate Valentines and Ash Wednesday together properly.
Also I will have a video call with my cute grandson tomorrow. He will be my Valentine's date. The best date ever even if all he can do is look at me and smile and gurgle. He is the love of my life now.
My funny Valentines.
