L.O.V.E.



Ahh...love.....I am a hopeless romantic and being so, I thought as we are approaching Valentine's Day, it would be nice to spread some love and good vibes with a few "loveydovey" posts to get you in a romantic mood.....X


Legend has it that Valentine was a priest who served during third century Rome. There was an Emperor at that time by the name of Claudius II. Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those that were married. With this thought in mind he outlawed marriage for young men in hopes of building a stronger military base. Supposedly, Valentine decided this decree just wasn't fair and chose to marry young couples secretly. When Emperor Claudius II found out about Valentine's actions he had him put to death on February 14th.
