Valentine's Day

In only a few short days, the nation will be celebrating a special day known as Valentine's Day. In class, we have talked briefly about the origins of Valentine's Day, about St. Valentine. Most of all, however, we talked about how it is better recognized as a commercial holiday and what that means. If we look around us, we see "Love" everywhere. However, we have to be aware that the word "Love" can be used in many different contexts, and certainly does not always means the same thing. Think about how many times you say or hear the word "Love" in a day. What are you really trying to say or mean when you use the word "Love"?

Your task is as follows. Each student is responsible for providing an example of how you use or see others use the word "Love" in everyday life. Whether it's something you hear on the radio, read in a book, or see on T.V., comment on what you saw or heard, and in what way was the word "Love" being used?
