The South Marysburgh Mirror Valentine’s Day ((From Wikipedia) Saint Valentine's Day, commonly known as Valentine's Day, or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is observed on February 14 each year. It is the second most celebrat- ed holiday around the world second to New Year's St. Valentine's Day began as a liturgical cele- bration of one or more early Christian saints named Valentinus. The most popular martyrology associated with Saint Valentine was that he was imprisoned for performing weddings for soldiers who were forbidden to marry and for ministering to Christians, who were persecuted under the Roman Empire; during his im- prisonment, he is said to have healed the daughter of his jailer Asterius. Legend states that before his execu- tion he wrote "from your Valentine" as a farewell to her. The day was first associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. By the 15th century, it had evolved into an occasion in which lovers expressed their love for each other by presenting flowers, offering confectionery, and send- ing greeting cards (known as "valentines").
