Welcome to Share your World.
Di is our gracious host for Share Your World

Here are this week’s questions:
1. Do you consider yourself to be romantic?
I used to be more romantic in my younger days. These days I concentrate on being caring and ensuring that we both are comfortable. Outright romantic gestures are now very rare from us both. More like warm socks and hot cups of tea/ coffee instead of boxes of chocolate or expensive trinkets.
2. Do you send cards on Valentine’s Day?
No! Valentine’s Day is not a part of our culture so no celebrations or cards.
3. Would you spend a considerable amount of money on a single red rose for your beloved?
Nopes! I’d rather get something useful that would last. Like a rose plant! At least it will give flowers for a long time and wouldn’t mean that someone’s getting rich on the sentimentalism of people!
4. What is your idea of a romantic evening?
A good meal in an affordable restaurant, and then perhaps catching a movie. We should be back home in a reasonable time so that my hubby can listen to the evening news and I can catch up on my blog!
Gratitude:
As always, I’m grateful to Almighty for the continued good health of my family. Alhamdolillah.

The cold wave is almost at its end. We had rain yesterday and the day before. It has cleared the air of smog/ fog. Now looking forward to spring.
Thank you, Di for these lovely questions. I like how you center your questions around one theme every week.

Love the suggestion of a plant rather than a rose…something full of life versus a token of its former self!
“Spring”…we are nowhere near that time. So it was nice to see the mention of the word…thank you, Sadje.

Wonderful answers. I have never been a fan of Valentines. Love should be shared daily through the heart of what others need and know they are loved.

Thanks Anita! All these ‘days’ limit love to one specific day. When love for a partner/ spouse, mother , father, etc should be visible always.

While flowers are pretty and smell nice, they don’t last. Better to spend the money on something more worthwhile that will last forever. I can visit flowers at a garden or look at them at the store.
