THAT REFUSES TO SHUT UP!!
" One legend contends that Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men — his crop of potential soldiers. Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.
Other stories suggest that Valentine may have been killed for attempting to help Christians escape harsh Roman prisons where they were often beaten and tortured.
According to one legend, Valentine actually sent the first "valentine" greeting himself. While in prison, it is believed that Valentine fell in love with a young girl — who may have been his jailor's daughter — who visited him during his confinement. Before his death, it is alleged that he wrote her a letter, which he signed "From your Valentine," an expression that is still in use today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories certainly emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic, and, most importantly, romantic figure. It's no surprise that by the Middle Ages, Valentine was one of the most popular saints in England and France. "
I seriously see no reason why this is such a bad day, right???
For some of us, Valentines Day is a day where we can show our loved ones just how much we care for them and just how much we appreciate their company..
And is it our fault that some people treat that day as a sex day..?? As a day where they can have fun and forget all about their responsibilities..??
NOO!! It is not fair.. It is not our fault.. You have to know yourself and judge yourself before pointing fingers..
And is it only on this particular day that people would be having sex and having fun!?!?!
Again, the answer is a big NO NO!!!
They do it all year round, regardless of what day.. Don't you go blaming Valentines Day just for these reason.. Please don't tarnish the good name of St. Valentine just because of this..
He has nothing to do with it.. The real problem is the society nowadays..
Theres nothing we can do, unless we change ourselves..
And as always, the vicious cycle will always continue to turn, ever so slowly..
The past will become the future, the future will become the past.
Sadly as it may, but.. What can we do..?
I might have spoke out of lines here, but can't I voice out my opinion..?
Surely I have the right to speak out, right.?
If ever there are people who are offended by my thoughts and voices, I am deeply sorry..
But as the lines goes on and on, You Fight For What You Believe, and that is exactly what I'll keep on doing..
No Matter what..
Love,
Roz.
