Valentine's Day


            On February 14th, we always celebrate valentine’s day. In habit, everyone gives something to someone such as flowers or chocolates. It’s kind habit and we are proper to celebrate it. Why is should be celebrated ?
            The first reason is everyone can share their affection and love. Love can combine everyone in this world. It can go over the limit of religious, country, and culture. We can give love to parents, children, cousin, friends, orphans , paupers, etc because valentine’s day is not only intended to boy or girl friend.
            Secondly, affection and love need struggle. In example, St. Valentine was killed by Caesar Claudius II. Caesar forbade every young boy to marry because he thought that young boy is stronger  to fight in war than married person. St. Valentine forbade Caesar’s law. He helped people to marry. Eventually he was caught and killed by Caesar.
            Thirdly, despite love should be given everyday, but if we can provide one day more special than usual, why not ?
            Fourthly, Valentine is an opportunity to do something more to person who we loved. It is like helping your mother or give something to paupers, etc. we can express our feeling with different way.
            The last, on Valentine’s day, we usually give flowers or chocolates. Do you know, what is benefit of chocolate ? Chocolate has many benefits such as reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and as an antioxidant that can make a long life. “ Chocolate can improve the blood circulation ,”said Njike in her presentation at annual meeting at American college of Cardiology Scientific in New Orleans.
            Based on the reasons above, we should respect the valentine’s day, despite we have different religious and culture. (:
