The Daily Word for February 15, 2021

 


saccharine - adjective - sentimental or overly so; sugary

Although it is technically Presidents' Day, you may just be feeling a bit hung over from yesterday,  Valentine's Day. Depending how you celebrated, you may or may not be saccharine. If you were able to experience love in a palpable sense, I am guessing that you are. If not, then you may have made the transition into today, an occasional that is for most usually devoid of sentiment–unless you happen to be a distant relation of either George or Abe or are just an ardent admirer of American historical figures. 

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with being saccharine, overly sweet with sentiment like saccharin, the sugar substitute with which dieters sweeten their coffee. Without grandiose emotions, you begin to diffuse like Sweet 'n Low to the bottom of the caffeine-muddied cup of life. And who wants that? 

If you are lucky enough to have the day off today and are looking for something sugary to do, why not make a journal list of everything in life that propels you to feel saccharine. If little less, it might candy and warm your soul.
