The History Behind Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day dates back to ancient Rome, when Saint Valentine became known for helping people in love. According to one legend, he secretly performed marriages for soldiers who were forbidden to wed. For his bravery and belief in true love, he became a symbol of devotion and faith.
Over time, Valentine’s Day evolved from a religious observance into a global celebration of love. Today, people celebrate it with cards, hearts, and flowers. But behind the modern gifts lies a deeper message — love requires courage, kindness, and sincerity. Remembering Saint Valentine helps us value the importance of pure and selfless love.
