February 14 Valentine's Day Romantic Story: St. Valentine
Valentine's Day begins with the romantic story of St. Valentine, who is known as the symbol of love and sacrifice. According to the story explaining why Valentine's Day is celebrated on February 14, Roman Emperor II. Claudius forbade young men from marrying so that they could better focus on their military duty. St. Valentine, who believes that love is a special gift that cannot be prohibited, organizes special events at night; He began to secretly give this gift, which was forcibly taken from the lovers' hands, to them. This romantic and brave gesture spread by word of mouth among the soldiers. Every man in love, who was forbidden from marrying, knocked on her door to benefit from this unique gift and married the woman they loved. Of course, this situation did not take long to come to the attention of the emperor and Valentine was sentenced to death.
This loving heroism was passed around like a romantic story. The blind daughter of St. Valentine's guard was one of those who heard this story, and in order to understand this hero who risked his own life for the sake of love, he spent almost all of his time every day until February 14, the day of his execution; He spent it with the prisoner, who would later be known as the inventor of Valentine's Day. St. Valentine told the guard's blind daughter about love and relationships and taught her ways to celebrate love by embellishing it with romantic stories. The bond between them grew stronger as the day of execution approached. As this bond grew stronger, the blind girl's dark world was illuminated with love, but she fell into fear and grief, thinking that the love, which she thought was the source of this light, would disappear with his death and her insides would return to darkness again.
When the execution day came on February 14, the romantic letter that Aziz gave to the blind girl, explaining that his love for her could not disappear with death and that love was independent of time and place, helped the blind girl to get rid of her grief and fear to some extent. This letter became a ray of hope not only to the guard's blind daughter, but also to all lovers who could not be reunited.
February 14, the day to commemorate the sacrifice of St. Valentine, gradually turned into Valentine's Day, where we celebrate the love that he is believed to represent.
