I wanted to take this opportunity to let you guys know why we celebrate Valentine’s Day.

 
Valentine is a name of a person who is also a priest; he lived in Rome during 3rd century. At this time there was a king named Claudius. People didn’t like Claudius because he was against Love and Marriages.


 The reason behind this behavior of king was that he wanted to form a huge army base in Rome. Claudius wanted all the men to be part of his army.
People in Rome didn’t like Wars, they don’t want to leave their loved ones and families and hence they didn’t showed interest in joining the Army. Claudius seeing this response from his men was very angry and he decided not to allow any marriages in his time. He might have thought that if men were not married they will surely join his army.

Mr. Valentine was against this rule and He always supported love and marriages. His favorite activity was to marry couples. Though the king Claudius was against the marriages and he passed a law on not allowing anyone to marry, Valentine Kept on Performing Marriage Ceremonies secretly. On one bad day Mr. Valentine was performing a marriage ceremony and he was caught by the soldiers. He was put into the jail and his punishment was death.

Though Mr. Valentine was in jail he didn’t lose the hopes in supporting Love. Young people came to Jail to meet Valentine and they expressed their support to him. This really made Valentine Happy and to stay cheerful. During this visits a young girl who is also the daughter of the prison guard used to spend more time with Valentine in the Jail. This Girl always supported Valentine for his thoughts..intertwined-heart-locket-valentines-day12
