Valentine’s day
The heart has been the symbol of Valentine’s Day since
ancient times when it was believed to be a source of feelings and love. If you
give your heart to a loved one, you are giving yourself. Love is a miracle and
it works miracles. It makes everyone a better person and gives hope for a
better future. Valentine’s Day reminds us that love should come first every day
of the year because only love gives meaning to life.
