After the Christmas and New Year holidays, the next big date for #parte_after_parte for most lovers is Valentine’s Day. On that day, social media platforms are flooded with high-resolution pictures of lovebirds wear matching outfits. Expensive gifts and scented flowers are exchanged. Surprise proposals are the order of the day and phone cameras will be clicking away with lots of awwwwns in the air.
The singles, on the other hand, are going to be but spectators, some red with jealousy would curl up and wish they had someone to call their own. But what I often tell singles is, ‘love does a door-to-door delivery. Everyone’s parcel is with the delivery man, just be patient!”
What is constant for we writers on each of these holidays is that we write. The few of us who have something going, write about it and the rest, write about the memories they had when loved hiked through the hills of their hearts. No doubt, that is why Making Monday Mild organized this snap contest.
