When I was a kid, I had no idea about Valentine’s Day. When I grew up to a youngster, my all idea about Valentine’s Day was just men should buy women some flowers. What’s for? I don’t know. Until one day in the class, my teacher told me who is Valentine, and the story about Valentine’s Day… Thank you, my teacher, and, here I want to share this story to you all. Maybe you already knew, but let me give you a review :)  

Valentine’s Day is celebrated on February 14^th, is celebrated to honor the memory of kind and gentle Roman Priest, Valentinus. During Valentinus’ life, the Emperor of Roman found his army dwindling. Young men refused to fight in many of the war. As a result, the Emperor decreed that no marriage could take place in Empire until the Roman armies were victorious. Many young couples asked Valentinus to marry them secretly. Valentinus was sympathetic to their love, and married many of them. When the Emperor discovered what Valentinus doing, he imprisoned him. In jail, Valentinus was befriended by the jailor’s daughter. On the eve of his execution, he sent the little girl a massage, thanking her for helping make his last days more pleasant, and telling her how much he appreciates her friendship. He signed the note: ‘’from your Valentine’’.

So, that is the story. On this day, people send special greeting card to their sweethearts, friends, family and teachers…. Send them to someone you have in your heart….
