I have always questioned the authority of this holiday. My main complaints are:
1. Its about buying presents for a sweetheart
2. Its alienating to those of us without a sweetheart
3. Its named after St. Valentine, to celebrate his martyrdom.
4. The Valentine's day Massacre...(this needs no clarification).
Yet, I still make homemade Valentines and give them out to my Grandma, who gives me a small box of sweethearts...Am I a hyprocrite? If I am, I enjoy it. I may not be successful in romance. Goodnight Cyberspace! Love is such a precarious thing. Be careful in love, be righteous in love, and most of all never give up.
