Whether you want to re-kindle the romantic flame with your spouse or surprise your fiance or someone you’re courting, you can send your message of love easily and at low cost via e-mail using ecards. Of course, Valentine’s Ecards aren’t meant to replace gifts, chocolates or the usual candlelight dinner, but they can be sent as a teaser for what lies ahead on this most romantic day of the year.
A bit of History
There are many theories as to the origin of Valentine’s Day. Some Historians have theorised that the celebration stems from various historical figures, but the consensus is that the occasion arises from St. Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to denounce Christianity. He died on February 14, 269 A.D which has become our current day of love. Legend also says that St. Valentine left a adiue note for the jailer’s daughter, who had become his friend, and signed it “From Your Valentine”. Slowly, February 14 became the date for exchanging love messages and St. Valentine became the patron saint of lovers. The date was marked by the sending of poems and simple gifts such as flowers. There was often a social gathering or a party.
In the United States, Miss Esther Howland is given credit for sending the first valentine cards. Commercial printed valentines cards were introduced in the 1800′s. The spirit of love and romance continues today as valentines cards are sent out with sentimental verses and children exchange valentine cards at school. In recent years the rise of the Ecard has seen the birth of a new way of sending a romantic message to your loved one, and it has become one of the busiest days of the year for E-card websites.
