VALENTINES DAY (The MISCONCEPTION)


When I see pictures like this my heart bleeds. ..not for the lady in the picture but for the ignorance associated with this . This is not all what valentines day is all about☝☝. Please let's not turn the true meaning of valentine into something dirty. I know valentine day is a day associated with lovers, After all febuary is a month of love and romance.
Let us also know that its a month of giving , of helping the less priviledged .We forget the origin of this day Valentine ...st VALENTINE a priest who rose to fame in the thrid century . He was known for his charitable heart , his method of showing love to people.The emperor enlisted unmarried men into his Army and put a ban against them on marraige , so they would concentrate more on the battle field .st VALENTINE secretly helped soldiers get married against the emperors wishes and was thrown in prison.
In prison he healed the prison warders daughter who was blind and converted her to Christianity before he died in prison. He died for showing love to others and helping people..
Please let's all focus on the symbol of this short story ..A season of showing love to others , not only on a particular day but everyday of our lives . On a day like this looking at this pic I posted above , you can understand why i said she soiled a very beautiful day , a very beautiful symbolic day by that caption.
This is not all what valentine's day stands for, it shouldn't be sexualised. it is much more than that , it's about the beauty you see in people, the love you show yes to your spouse and Also others..We remember a saint that died for love because he helped others . Let's all remember that as we celebrate this beautiful day . Happy vals day in advance peeps, I πŸ’ŸπŸ’— u all😘
