I hate arbitrary holidays but it’s always a good move to show other people you care for them and shower them with love and appreciation.
Back in first grade Catholic school while living in the Bronx, I was sweet for a curly haired Jewish girl named Krystal who went to the Hebrew School nearby. She was always nice to me and I loved her hugs. My uncle had a soldering tool and carved out an outline of Snoopy from wood. I painted it to look like him and wrote on the back Happy Valentine’s Day Krystal ❤️ Your Charlie Brown. Fast forward to a week later, Snoopy is being used as a door stopper at the entrance of our Church.
Gutted.
We lost touch after we moved down to Florida 2 years later. I still think about that girl and what could have been with this gentile had we not moved to the Sunshine State.
That’s my non-existent Chosen People Westside Story.
Any tales of unrequited love or good memories from Valentine’s Day?
Much love ❤️
