WHY DO WE CELEBRATE VALENTINE’S DAY?

Valentine’s Day existed much before the time of St. Valentine. In ancient Rome, there used to be a holiday in the mid of February. This day celebrated fertility and it is believed that men and women were paired on this day as part of a ritual.

St. Valentine’s Day used to be feast day in the Catholic religion. This day was celebrated as the martyrdom day of St. Valentine. There are different legends of St. Valentine on whom this holiday is based. The one which explains the celebration of the day of love on 14th February is that St. Valentine was a Roman priest who used to perform weddings of the Roman soldiers who were forbidden to marry. St. Valentine used to wear a ring bearing cupid on one of his fingers. This was a symbol of love according to him. This ring helped soldiers recognise him. He also handed out paper cars to soldiers to remind them of love.

Reason behind the celebration of Valentine’s Day

The reason behind the celebration of Valentine’s Day emanates from the symbolism that St. Valentine gave it. In the middle ages, people started celebrating love through different forms of expression like poems, songs and cards. As the 15th century came to an end, the world ‘valentine’ started to be associated with love. It was used to describe lover in all the poems dedicated to love. This is where the concept of Valentine’s Day originated from.

In the 19th century, people started giving Valentine’s Day cards to their lovers to express their love for their partners. The Valentine’s Day that we know today originated from here.

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
