     People need a cause to celebrate the very natural instinct of love.  Has love been officialy entered into our lives on this day? Valentine was a saint who lived a life of great sacrifice spending years in the prison only because he used to arrange secret marriages of those who were forbidden to in those times. If Valentine is a cause then Cupid is ready with bows running after those who carry a rose.
        A great deal of infatuation which is prevalent  amongst the teenagers need to be examined. Parents are required to communicate with their grown up kids sensibly.  Ofcourse, I do agree that today's youth is ambitious and plans properly for the career , I have also seen some brilliant students carried away by the momentary infatuation leading them to nowhere.  Love, thus apart from a cause to celebrate must be understood though surely it is not something  magical working way beyond human possibilities. And when you love someone you need a great deal of sacrifices and adjustments for the one whom you love.
      
      Looking back in early nineties, I am pretty sure  that there was no special day to express love. And people used to love  these days as well.  My idea to pen down these lines is basically a concern upon the marketing of Human Being's natural values. The day we start exploiting the devotees at Temple the holiness and the faith with which the devotees usher mows down. Temples are certainly not created for the bazars...We could not make a replica of God thus we made temples where we can experience vibes of divinity and even today we experience it at some holy places.  Love is also in its purest form is Godly and thus not a subject of marketing.  Very often we have seen that when universal truths are deciphered into some tradition or cult they lose the sanctity and we just end messing up with the bafoons and puppets who never sing there own songs.
