Happy Valentines Day!!!

Every February, across the world, candy, flowers, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. But who is this mysterious saint and why do we celebrate this holiday? The history of Valentine's Day — and its patron saint — is shrouded in mystery.

But we do know that February has long been a month of romance. St. Valentine's Day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition. So, who was Saint Valentine and how did he become associated with this ancient rite? Today, the Catholic Church recognizes at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred.

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.

...Today....all younger, races, religious, and sexes celebrating this Valentine Day. This is to shows their loves until love comes cheap in this Valentine's Day. This Valentine's Day is all about getting back to basics with some old-fashioned romance -- and saving money and energy at the same time. Couples were urged to turn off the lights and use candles instead, share a bath or shower, snuggle under the duvet and have fun with eco-friendly chocolate. hehehe... in Malaysia itself more than 100 couples were caught in Valentine's night at budget hotel and even inn! Not surprise because most of them 70% are Malays. Well...

Guys, Valentine’s Day has come and like every year for the past some years, debate is going on in the country whether to celebrate Valentine’s Day or not. With so little to rejoice and with so little to smile about, why not celebrate one more day? All that crap about Valentine being a Muslim’s enemy or some other sexual stories attached to the occasion and other rumor mongering, why not just reiterate love to each other?

Yes we should love and respect each other 365*24*7, but we need to reiterate our love to each other every now and then, so why waste Valentine’s Day. And we must shed this hypocrisy. When we enjoy Western music, meals, dresses, movies, culture and their technologies, then why not Valentine’s Day?

We should customize and tailor such days to our culture. Yes, we must not copy it as such and we cannot do it. Booze, illicit sex, rendezvous and other Western stereotypes on such occasions are not necessary to enjoy and celebrate.

So on this Valentine, just loosen up, enjoy the life, its too short and too expensive to waste in gloom and doom.

Most important thing is our believe...
