Romantic Love is of great acclaim during the month of February. This is because Valentine’s Day is celebrated on the 14th day of February. We recall Saint Valentine on this day. He was a preacher of love, who brought hearts together, and performed weddings of forbidden lovers of his time. This day is, ideally, devoted to love, expressed by lovers almost worldwide.
However, now-a-days, people not only celebrate this day with their lovers, but also with their loved ones, such as parents, family members, and close friends.
Moreover, in times of today, gender has no boundaries just as love has no boundaries. We have gays, lesbians, and bisexuals, as well, celebrating this day of love. We also have the old and the young appreciating this day. It is beautiful to see almost the whole world in love on one day. Today…
As we celebrate Valentine’s Day, lovers show their love for each other through materialistic things that symbolize love, affection and appreciation, such as chocolates, flowers, pastries, greeting cards, and so on.
Now-a-days, symbols of Love are represented through heart-shaped stuff, cupids, and doves. The creative crowd make things to gift their Valentine, such as food items, handmade cards, etc. The rest of the crowd resort to purchasing a suitable gift that their lover either longed for or needs.
However, love is not only expressed through the offering of worldly pleasures, but it can be expressed through a thoughtful deed, love-filled words, affectionate gestures, and the like.
Nevertheless, not all people commemorate this occasion. There are the brokenhearted, the faith-departed, and the pragmatic crowd that prefer to keep themselves engaged in other activities rather than getting involved in this merriment.
Although, the fact remains that love is a beautiful feeling that cannot be defined through mere words. This day is one of the best times of the year to convey heartfelt desires and feelings to your partner or the special person you love.
So, why keep in your heart what’s on your mind?
Say it out loud to the person you love…
“Will you be my Valentine?”
