“Anyone who has never really
loved has never really lived.”
(A. Christie)
History of the holiday
St. Valentine’s Day has its roots in several legends. This is the legend of how St. Valentine’s Day began.
Valentine lived in Rome in the times of the Emperor Claudius II nearly 17 centuries ago. When Roman Emperor Claudius II needed soldiers, he made a law against marrying because he felt that marriage made men want to stay at home instead of fighting wars.
But the priest Valentine couldn’t agree with the Emperor’s decision. When he saw that young couples were truly in love, he married them secretly. He was caught and put into prison and sentenced to the death.
History of the holiday
Once a young girl came to him. She was the prison guard’s daughter. She was blind and Valentine treated her blindness. Her father let her visit him sometimes. They talked for hours and she helped him to be brave.
Nevertheless, the day of his execution came. Valentine wrote her a little final farewell message where he thanked her for the friendship and he signed below “Love from your Valentine”.
It was on the 14th of February 269. Since then people have always remembered about Valentine.
