Hello, friends.
Valentine's Day is here, and it’s a day for lovers!
Cupid has loaded up his bow and arrow, and is busy shooting love into the hearts of many. Friends, family, and significant others are exchanging gifts of love and making the day even more special. Whether you’re in a relationship or not, this is the perfect day to show appreciation to those closest to you.
From a heartfelt card to a bouquet of beautiful flowers, there are many ways to say “I love you” on Valentine's Day!
Valentine's Day is a day of love that has been celebrated for centuries. The history of Valentine's Day is filled with mystery and romanticism - making it the perfect day to express your love for someone special! The origins of the holiday can be traced back to the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia, which was celebrated in mid-February. During the festival, boys and girls would draw names from a jar and spend the day together. This tradition was later adopted by Christians to honor Saint Valentine, who was known for his acts of love and generosity.
The holiday then evolved over time to become associated with romance and became popularized in the 14th century by Geoffrey Chaucer, a famous English poet. He wrote...
And loveth him, the which that right for love
Upon a cros, our soules for to beye,
First starf, and roos, and sit in hevene a-bove;
For he nil falsen no wight, dar I seye,
That wol his herte al hoolly on him ley.
And sin he best to love is, and most meke,
What nedeth feyned loves for to seek?
Geoffrey Chaucer "The Love Unfeigned" - Source
