When people think about Valentines day, red roses, candy in heart shape boxes,and sweet valentines day card come into mind. But, like most holidays, there was a special meaning that brought about the holiday. While the original meaning has been completely lost overtime, we have grown to believe that Valentines is about being in love.
With that said shouldn't people prove they're love for eachother on a daily basis? I really think that Valentines day shouldn't be just the one day of the entire year we show love for one another. People should show love to each other on a daily basis. We as humans don't do that anymore in a lot of relationships. We see more abuse in marriages, relationships and even families. I really think that we as human beings should step up and show our love every single day of our lifes. So why people only choose Valentines Day to show love to the person they are in love with? If in reality the meaning of Valentines Day and the real meaning is not about being in love.

Not everyone celebrate valentines...but for me having a Valentines Day is good...It will give us a sweet reminder that we need to show someone that they are loved and it will also remind us that we are loved by someone...

I agree that we should show each other we love each other every day. My husband and I really do, I think. We are always loving and romantic with each other. We just do a little something special for Valentine's Day. It's just a fun holiday for us. We also give our kids a special little gift. But, overall, we all know we love each other. We treat each other well. I would be upset if I were in a marriage where my husband only showed me he loves me on Valentine's Day. It really wouldn't mean much then.

This Day is just an excues to sown your care to your lovers(including your parents and the man you like).Because now more and more people choose to conceal their feelings,especially in China.

I don't celebrate this holiday because I don't feel any special, I don't want to show any special love this day. I just do what I do in any other day.
If I show love that day, it's the love I really feel, and no a false love inspired by a society that thinks there's a day when we should show our love and friendliness to the other people.
I just show myself as I am.
