Valentine's day for everybody?
To get it out of the way, Have a fun Valentine's Day. If you are married or has a lover, then enjoy this day for love. Those without, maybe next year this cowboy will catch you.

But now even the non-christian celebrate Valentine's day with their love ones just like any non-sectarian holidays (New Years Day or Independence day). Even in Islamic nations where Valentine's day is frowned upon or outlawed, many people are catching on with the common practice of giving flowers and chocolate or gift to show their love during this day.
