The history of Valentine's Day is shrouded in mystery. It is not known for sure whether Valentine's Day began as a way to commemorate the death and burial of Saint Valentine [which occurred around 270AD] or whether Valentine's Day began as a way to "christianize" the pagan festival of Lupercalia.
No matter which is the case, it has long been a day for expressions of love towards friends and family. It is my hope that each of you has taken time to let your loved ones know in some special way how much you love and appreciate them.
