As I have mentioned above, Valentine’s day is widely known as Saint Valentine’s Day also. History is saying that a Roman Catholic priest St. Valentine took immense initiative in marrying off the Roman soldiers secretly in a Christian ceremony that has marked the beginning of his reputation as a believer in importance of love. That was the main reason The Valentine’s Day is named after St. Valentine day. While he was taking immense marriage initiative for the Roman soldiers, his country Rome was ruled by Emperor Claudius II Gothicus who literally prohibited their soldiers from marrying. He wants the entire soldiers supposed to dedicate and fight for their country rather than getting married for the love.
As Emperor Claudius II Gothicus found St. Valentine was indulging/encouraging the soldiers to get marry secretly, Emperor Claudius II Gothicus put St. Valentine in the jail, subsequently executed him on 14th February 270 AD. As St. Valentine was taking rigorous efforts in providing love for the Roman soldiers through the marriage, his death anniversary is celebrated as Valentine’s Day.
Wholehearted love and affection is pure and divine and it is literally another kind of worship. Though we are not able to see the god around us, but we always feels that the presence of god is available everywhere. Similarly, when our lover is omnipresent, we find them with us every moment. True lovers can feels some kind of telepathy through which they are able to connect one another regardless their physical presence.
It is highly important that we have to love others and to live happily on a day today basis. Nobody knows what will happen to us tomorrow and the day after.
Valentine’s day is an appropriate day the lovers should have the courage to speak from their bottom of heart regardless their age. Always think that why we have to wait quite long time to express our love and affection to our partner, parents, relatives and friends. Without any hesitation we have to tell them how much we love them, how the important role they plays in our life and how our life is incomplete without love.
Love is always been previous and it can bring peace and great deal of happiness in this world. Valentine’s day is celebrating not only for our partner but also it is an opportunity to shower love towards our family, friends and colleagues.
