Valentine’s Day Traditions & Activities – 15 Fun, Meaningful, and Romantic Ideas

Isn’t it interesting how the meaning, significance, and celebration of holidays change for each of us over time. For example, Valentine’s Day begins as a fun day where kids make cards and give heart shaped candies to classmates. It then transforms into a day where teenagers have ‘crushes’ and buy roses for someone special. And eventually, it becomes a day where couples become unselfish and say and do things for their significant other. Undoubtedly, Valentine’s Day is one of the best holidays because it helps us all think of and do things for those we love and appreciate. If only our words and actions demonstrated on this day could translate into every day! But, even if for a day, this holiday allows us the opportunity to more fully possess and demonstrate the very attribute and characteristic that defines the purpose of our existence, the solution to every problem, and the foundation of personal happiness – love! And never forget that love is much more than a thought, feeling, or word; love is an action initiated by perhaps the other great attribute we all must develop – unselfishness!
