Aloha, Rotarians & Friends, far & near!
Love is in the air! Or is it? Many celebrate Valentine's Day as an extra day to show those they like or love, their feelings. However, that is not how it began. Here is a Summary I found:
Valentine’s Day is a blend of Christian martyrdom, ancient Roman fertility rites, and medieval romantic traditions. While its exact origins are complex and partly legendary, the holiday has evolved into a global celebration of love, encompassing romantic, platonic, and familial expressions.
For interesting information Google "origins of Valentine's Day" and you may be surprised! History can be brutal and fascinating!
Thank you again to all who RSVP for our meetings weeks in advance! It really helps me to help you!
