优秀散文赏析:发现爱

  The Single's Day is just around the corner. In China, Valentine’s Day is
overrated and has a reputation for being exclusively for couples. But what about
the single gal or guy? In that day single people often feel lonely and even
worthless. There must be a way they can celebrate their day even without a
partner. That's why the Single's Day came about. We should look at it as nothing
more than an excuse to treat ourselves to one or a few indulgences.
          I came up with some suggestions on how “single” men and women could spend
the day alone, but not necessarily lonely. Instead of passing The Single's Day
off as a completely invaluable waste of space on the calendar, try one, several
or all of the following esteem-boosters to lift your single spirit this time
around.
          1. The recently single gal/guy. First and foremost, do not ever call your
ex in case you get lonely. Exes belong to the past. Move on.
          Yes, you must still be hurting and are going through the healing process.
But remember this famous line from a song: "Ooh child, things are gonna be
easier." In time you are indeed going to be OK. Don’t sulk. The Single's Day can
be a day to spend with family.
          You can even make it more creative by suggesting potluck and maybe plan
some board games or videoke. During this time, family can offer you the most
solid support you will need, so take advantage of it.
          2. The still-single guy or gal. Some of you may be getting restless already
because it’s been years and you’re still without a partner. Relax. Why don’t you
call your other single pals and plan a night out? Have a nice dinner and go to a
singles bar afterward. You’ll never know who you might meet. There is always a
big chance you will meet someone interesting and single too. The Single's Day is
also for people looking for love.
          3. Otherwise, for the groom-to-be, you can plan a bachelor party or
fraternity party.You plan every aspect including bachelor party ideas, games,
party favors, drinks and food for your bachelor party or fraternity party (frat
party). Since a lot goes into planning the bachelor party, it's will be tricky,
fun but also stressful. Make it a very memorable one, why not enjoy it?
          4. Buy yourself your favorite flowers. Who says you have to wait around for
Prince/Princess Charming to add some spice and color to your dorm or apartment
with your preferred plant life? Both guys and girls enjoy the occasional bouquet
of Birds of Paradise or a lucky bamboo tree to boost Feng Shui.
       

          5. The single mom/dad (formerly married or not). Take your kid/s out on a
date. Why not? You can even plan an all-day activity. Go to the mall, take him
to his favorite pizza place, watch a movie or treat him to play-all-you-can
(with a reasonable budget) games at a carnival. It could be anything. Time spent
with your kids is always worthwhile.
          Do as you please. Ultimately, you know what can make you happy. That’s the
most important thing.
          Who says romance is dead? Believe it: Love is in the air! Choose what you
like,trust your family and friends.
