Valentines Day

Happy day of hearts, couples, kisses and all things love!

 

February 14th marks Valentines Day and everyone is used to celebrating this day from the time they were young in elementary school handing out small tokens of cheesy quotes and tiny pieces of candy to the most current years where the day is usually reserved for those love birds out in the world.

Valentines Day derives from St. Valentine. And although there are multiple historical stories on who the original St. Valentine really was and who this love-celebrated day came from. 

One states that Emperor Claudius II outlawed marriage for young men because he believed being single made them better soldiers. St. Valentine defied Claudius and performed marriages in secret for young lovers. 

Another story suggests that Valentine was an imprisoned man who sent “valentine letters” after he fell in love with a young girl and would sign them “from your Valentine”, suggesting where this signage still used today came from.
