2/14 // personal notes

Valentine was a priest imprisoned for his christian faith.
His letters from prison, to whom we are not clear,
were the first "Valentines" sometime in the early christian centuries.

The catholic church decided to preempt a Roman holiday of
Fertility with a Day devoted to the martyred Saint. In those days women
were advised to remain chaste; to not marry, as they would become
no more than legal property.
thanks to J in Jerusalem for the tips on adding commercial links.
best wishes to JGW on 'new' new position.

Happy St.Valentine's Day to loved ones all over the globe
