Valentine's Day!
Saint Valentine’s Day celebrated as the day of articulation of love falls on the 14th of February. Very little is known about the Saint in whose honour the feast was established by the Roam Catholic Church in the 5th Century AD. It is supposed to have been a Christianization of a Pagan festival of Lupercalia, a fertility festival. Chaucer was probably the first to associate Saint Valentine’s Day with romantic love. His Parlement of Foules has the following verse;
“For this was on seynt Volantynys day
When euery byrd comyth there to chese his make”
Whatever the story behind the day, and whatever the history of Saint Valentine, Love makes the world go! As Ralf Waldo Emerson said, ‘Give all to love; obey thy heart.’
