Valentine's Day: Does Love Only Exists on That Day?
So Valentine's day is coming. Millions of couples are going to celebrate this day. I won't. It isn't because I am single. It's because I celebrate my love every day of the Year. I don't remember my loved one only this particular day; the 14th of February.
"Valentine's Day or Saint Valentine's Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14 by many people throughout the world. In the West, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine's cards, presenting flowers, or offering confectionery. The holiday is named after two among the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished."
I think it's childish to celebrate that day. Do we need a day to celebrate our love? Well I am against any "special" day like Mother's day, Father's day, Aids day, Environment day etc. I think that everyday should be Mother's day, Father's day etc. Everyday we should care for other people, show our love, protect the environment, give charity etc.
Many would say: "What's wrong with it? We would like to celebrate!". OK you can do it, but remember that there are many people that will profit from this day. Many people have named this day as "Florist's day" or "Pastry cook's day". They are not wrong. Florists and Pastry Cooks make thousands of dollars on that day! It's not bad for people to earn, but why be a victim of that day? You can buy flowers cheaper on "casual" days to show your love!
