My belief In Valentine's Day


  • As we known, each year on February 14th, many people exchange cards, chocolates, flowers, or gifts with their special "valentine."This romantic day, we called– Valentine's Day. When I did some research about Valentine's Day, I found out there are several version of stories for it. And there are few stories said that the origin of this holiday for the expression of love is not romantic as people thought.






  • On the other hand, I saw some articles claims that businessmen use the Valentine's Day ideas for making money. They think it is a great idea to earn more money and sell some peripheral commodity of the holiday. When Valentine's Day is coming, many things are on sales, and many sellers will come up with cool ideas for this day. For example, people can customize their calendar with their pictures, and apparel shops will sell Valentine's Day clothes. 




  • However, nowadays people celebrate Valentine's Day as a romantic holiday! I believe in the history of the holiday, but also I believe it in a romantic way! I think it is wonderful that all the couples can have a day for themselves to celebrate their love each year at the same day. Also, there are bunch of ways to celebrate this great holiday. For instance, people can go on a movie, a dinner date, or just stay at home and celebrate with some surprise!


HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

  1. Your post had attractive images but it also raised several questions. What is the origin of Valentine's Day? How does your post text relate to the image of the fourteenth century looking painting? Also, I think your post could be strengthened by comparing and contrasting ways that Valentine's Day has linked romantic love and commercial products. This has occurred at least since the 1850's and there is a lot of interesting material available.
