I found this clipart on Microsoft’s website. It was too cute to pass up so I decided to write a Valentine post.
A little history about Valentine’s day…
In pre-Roman history pagans celebrated a festival called Lupercalia. They festival was held from Feburary 13 to February 15 to avert evil spirits and purify the city, releasing health and fertility.
Noble youths would run up and down through the city naked for sport and laughter striking those they met along the streets. Many women purposely got in their way and presented their hands to be struck, believing that the pregnant will be helped in delivery, and the barren to pregnancy.
Hey, I don't want this picture. What gives?
