There are varying opinions as to the origin of Valentine"s Day.Some experts state that it originated from St.Valentine,a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity.He died on February 14,269 A.D.,the same day that had been devoted to love lotteries.
Gradually,February 14 became the date for exchanging love messages and St.Valentine became the patron saint of lovers.The date was marked by sending poems and simple gifts such as flowers.There was often a social gathering or a ball.
In the United States,Miss Esther Howland is given credit for sending the first valentine cards.Commercial valentines were introduced in the 1800"s and now the date is very commercialised.The town of Loveland,Colorado,does a large post office business around February 14.The spirit of good continues as valentines are sent out with sentimental verses and children exchange valentine cards at school.
