The First Was the Trendsetter

I have several children.

Who do I love more?

The first one.

Why?

Because he saw how awesome I am and said, “Yes. I’ll take her.”

He was the trendsetter. The original influencer. The bold one who locked me in before the rest caught on.

The others?

They watched him thriving and said,

“Wait… she does all that? Yeah, we’re signing up too.”

Let’s be clear though.

He didn’t pick me because I was awesome.

I became awesome because he made me level up.

He got the trial version.

The others got the upgraded release.

Better features.

Stronger patience.

Same love. No discounts.

Trendsetter or copycat — they all chose me.

And everyday, I choose each and everyone right back.

Happy Valentine’s Day to all of those who have someone to love.
