"Saint Valentine's Day[1] (commonly shortened to Valentine's Day[1][2][3]) is an annual holiday held on February 14 celebrating love and affection between intimate companions.[1][3] The holiday is named after one or more early Christian martyrs named Valentine and was established by Pope Gelasius I in 496 AD. It is traditionally a day on which lovers express their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and sending greeting cards (known as "valentines"). The holiday first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished."
These historical movements that created this valentine craze. devotion of fine love at its full extent..if valentines was like highschool where pager greets, i choo-choo-choose you telegrams, dozen roses, notes folded in orgami hearts..tapes/cd's with verbal messages...etc. it would definitely be pleasurable bc those puppy love motives made everyone smile down to the tea. Ironically, as cutesy as that sounded..the last time that occurred was like grade 10..lol..but the last time I celebrated Valentines properly was with my parents it was the first year I was single after a long term relationship...and it was the heartfilled action that kept me acknowledging the main purpose of valentines. But along the way the message got jaded...last year I did the whole anti-valentines and 'hes not that into' was the best message yet... perhaps..I have yet to change my mind about this occassion..but as far as i can remember...I still have yet to experience cupids charm to get me swayed...
I was listening to a random radio station and their take was that valentines was primarily for women. Its these occassions that apparently are major tests to men to see if they can figure out the essence of there woman..However, there has been major controversy in creating 'steak and sex day' for the men..what do you think about that?.. fancy lol..but for centuries that this day was created..caused many emotional walls to engage in this occassion...it will keep the heart beating at a fast pace and those cheeks flushed..love will reunite..or will be taken to another level.
this objection with the dislike of valentines has travelled a long way..st o' valentine I do apologize for my close minded experiences that got me misguided from this glamorous occassion. Perhaps this is a realization that in fact my experiences were not so great ones.. I may primarily query the potential..
those participating
captivate the moment..
love at its fullest and put that woman first.
xo
power to my anti-valentiners..
celebrate the independant love.
and that starts with you.
crank open a bottle for you.
cheers!!!
