“On Valentine’s Day, choose the card that makes you slightly nervous.”
– The Sage
The Sage has always believed that Valentine’s Day is less about romance and more about risk management. His advice for navigating the card aisle is bold, slightly alarming, and delivered with a steady hand: “On Valentine’s Day, choose the card that makes you slightly nervous.”
According to The Sage, a safe Valentine’s card says nothing. It smiles politely. It thanks you for “being you.” It could just as easily be given to a colleague retiring after 12 years in accounts. But the card that makes you hesitate — the one that feels almost too sincere, too dramatic, too committed — that’s the one that means business.
The Sage does advise caution. If you find yourself sweating in the shop, checking the return policy, or rehearsing explanations in advance, you may have drifted beyond “romantic” and into “life-altering.” But Valentine’s Day, he insists, is not about safety — it’s about choosing ink with courage and hoping for applause instead of consequences.
