‘A few years ago I went through a rough time, where I became very negative about everything and life in general. I’d go as far as saying I didn’t even like myself. During this time I met a lovely guy, we went on a few dates but I let my pessimism get in the way of letting things develop further. We didn’t speak for a few months and Valentine’s approached, a day which I never really cared for. That evening there was a knock at my door, and there he stood with a present for me … a cherry pie! During our first date I had told him this was one of my favourite things. I smiled for the first time in ages. It was at that moment I changed the way I looked at life. No one had ever done anything so thoughtful for me before and I was extremely touched. As silly as it sounds this small gesture made me open my eyes and realise there are people that care enough to make another happy. We are still very much in love and Valentine’s since has always been referred to as ‘cherry pie day’.’
