Cupid Marketing

As an observer and not being an active player in the game you get to see a lot what most people wouldn't see. Today was Valentines day and its like any other day for me but may be not for quite a few. Its a huge deal for new couples which is understandable to an extend and then its probably the worst day for singles in search of some one to be with. A day like this gets them face to face to the ugly truth. Its like that reality looms on their head that they are alone and then that thought grows on them making them feel worse and makes them believe they are always going to be lonely and so they torment themselves further and Valentines day turns into a worsen-tine day.

But my point is why should a day made out of media hype to sell flowers, cards and gifts make people(otherwise very normal people) turn abnormally depressive and saddened. Stupid cupid brings in more stupidity amongst those hit by it and those spared by it.

Come on grow up is what I got tell those saddened souls. Logic and reason is getting lost from the human race slowly. well as a student of marketing I must say that our marketeers are kinda doing a good job of getting them all. But as a race we are getting stupid by the day and losing all sense of purpose of existence. We are going down the drains for valentines what a pathetic excuse for existence...But again hats of to persistence of marketeers in making a different kinda of world no matter how shallow it is but a world it is...
