2022 is the year to get back to normal, so lets celebrate this loving day with the people that mean the world to us and even animals we care about. We believe Love should be all year round but there is something extra special on this day that makes us have butterflies and excitement, whether its a first date or a life time with someone, we know that the effort made on this day goes a long way for our mental health.
Lets give thanks to the feast of Valentine which was established by Pope Gelasius I in AD 496 in loving memory for St Valentine of Rome who dedicated his life to loving people and giving them opportunities to feel the love they deserved, He died on the 14th of Feb AD 269 and this period also had associations with Love Birds of the early spring of the 18th century. Through the years folk traditions became significant in most cultures, religion’s and commercial celebrations which has evolved into heart shaped products, doves, and the famous figure of a winged cupid turning this into a mainstream event.
So lets make that all important effort no matter how small, get your hair done, have your nails done, have a shave, iron your garments, spray yourself with your favorite perfume or aftershave, even if you’re having a night in be proud and feel good.
