Celebrate Your Loved One
Often, the origins of a holiday are clouded in mystery and such is the case with Valentine’s Day. Historians claim the celebration is based on a festival known as Lupercalia which is a fertility rites celebration in which men and women are paired by lottery. However, during the 5th century, the pope forbade the celebration and according to legend, replaced it with St. Valentine’s Day. However, this account remains up for debate, but celebrating your loved one is never a debated issue.
Especially during the times we live in today, it is easy to take a loved one for granted. So much focus is placed on work, family obligations, social activities, and a variety of other things that take our attention away from the one we love. However, it is vital to the health and stability of your relationship that you take time to focus solely on your loved one. Love is the most precious thing on earth and those that find it have found something most valuable. Love should be celebrated and cherished, so take this time to pay attention and devote some time to the one you love the most.
