as 14th Feb is near, now more and more chinese young generation have crazy for this festival , the most abvious phenomennon is that all flowers shop is full of rose, you will also find in street many young girls hand have such flowers, it is popular especial in colloge or university , in fact ,this is foreign festival, be honest , when we are young time that is about 1990s time, our chinese never know have this festival ,at that time, the chinese valentines days -magpie festival that time is more popular , as is most youngs dream love, but as time fly , this festival have slowly be forget by young genaration ,in stead. it have benn replace by foreign festival ,i still hope our chinese need to remember tradition festival and to learn our ancestor 's firm to love, that is more important

It's a natural thing that happens when you open to trade, the same way your Lunar New Year is now a none working holiday in my country, we are citizens of the world you know the internet makes assimilation of new ideas even faster.

The only thing that is constant in the world is change.
But if you are able to educate the heart of your old tradition to the kids they would really Continue to celebrate Valentine's in a traditional way.
