Although in our time we celebrate with love, friendship, happiness and many gifts, Valentine's Day has its origin in history as a Catholic holiday, it was a saint who lived in Rome, one of the acts that Acting was marrying in prisons act that was forbidden and for this reason was beheaded by the emperor.

This saint did not escape the feelings, because, waiting in jail to be beheaded, he met a blind young daughter of the judge who fell in love, he asked God for love to return the vision to see him before he died, miracle that was granted and she could see. A paper he had given him in which he read "Your Valentine."
This girl was named Julia, such was her gratitude that next to her grave she planted an almond tree with pink flowers. For this reason it has been said that the almond tree is a symbol of lasting love and friendship.

Hidden side of this celebration, it is also said that in the times of the Roman Empire parties were held where the sacrifice of animals and orgies were the central acts.
It is attributed to poets like Shakespeare and Chaucer, to give the romantic and loving tone to this day.
Whatever its origin, I can tell you, it is a way to get a little closer in this society, so full of bad vibes, of people who do not cultivate anything good, I take this opportunity to ask all those who read these lines to be more tolerant with our peers, and that we educate our children in love, respect, tolerance and above all in good principles, only in this way we can transform societies and leave a better planet.
Very good happy day of love and friendship ...
