21st Century Valentine's Day


Day of love. Such a great thing. I found these little beauts and thought they totally explain our world today. Poor St. Valentine....what turned out to be a recognition of your death turned into a world-wide celebration of love. Although there are many rumors involving the origins of Valentines Day, there is one I'd like to think is true. Third Century. Rome. Emperor Claudius II decided that soldiers were better if they were single. He outlawed marriage and our Valentine priest continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. Awwwwww.... Cute. But then he was put to death (You'll find other rumors here). Whatever the reason, love the holiday. Just for fun here are some social media valentines....21st century style.
