I do something nice EVERY SINGLE DAY for multiple people trust me. But 95% of the world only gives a f!&$ about themselves. I always try and encourage others to do the same for over 25 years now.

Amen bro. I agree. Too many people live in the land of āWhat if things had been differentā or āWhat will be tomorrowā. They miss the moment they are in.

I am guilty of that far too oftenā¦ And its a major source of my depression at timesā¦ I do try to ālive in the nowā more though, but its part of my overthinking ADHD, I play out 10,000 scenariosā¦ Also a big reason I smoke, because cannabis keeps that 10k scenarios down to more like 100, which isnt as exhaustingā¦

That constant replaying past f ups or missed opportunities in your past can absolutely strip the joy from your today.
Been there, done that.
I try to be in the now. I have some control of that. The past aināt changing for me.

Valentineās Day we know today, with the cards and chocolates, really started as late as 1985, when Hallmark launched their Valentineās Day advertisements in the US, claiming themselves as āThe Valentineās Storeā.
Is anyone here able to verify this article?
Letās just say my recollection of US marketing before 1985 is a bit hazy.

The day is named, of course, for St. Valentineāwe all know that by now. But why? Who is this mysterious Valentine?
According to the New York Times, itās possible that the love-filled holiday is based on a combination of two men. There were, after all, two Valentines executed on February 14 Itās believed that the Catholic Church may have established St. Valentineās Day in order to honor these men, who they believed to be martyrs. Whatās more, itās possible that one of these men, Saint Valentine of Terni, had been secretly officiating weddings for Roman soldiers against the emperorās wishes (married men were not drafted into the military), making him, in some eyes, a proponent of love.
Another story involves the practice of writing love letters to your Valentine. Itās said that St. Valentine wrote the first āvalentineā greeting to a young girl he tutored and fell in love with while he was imprisoned for the crimes outlined above. According to The History Channel before his death, he wrote her a letter signed āFrom your Valentine," which remains a commonly used phrase to this day.
