Celebrations of Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day carnival is celebrated in a big way in countries around the globe. It is said to have originated in pagan times when people celebrated February 14 in honor of "Roman God of Fertility". This February fertility festival celebration that also marked the beginning of spring was known as the Feast of Lupercalia. In such festivals boys drew out names of girls from a box. They would then be regarded as a couple for a year. Sometimes these couples would fall in love and even marry. Christian Church decided to turn the pagan event into Valentine's Day celebration. Increasingly, people began to celebrate February 14 by expressing love for their sweethearts.
"My love for you is a journey, starting at forever, and ending at never. |
