Valentine's Day

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. People, all over the world, take this opportunity(?) to express or remind their feelings towards their dear ones. But why only 14th February? I know this day is celebrated in memory of some Saint Valentine and blah blah blah but does one have only one day to do so? If I love my father, or my mother or anyone, I don't need to wait for 14th February to tell him/her. I would do it as soon as I get chance and I feel like. If one wants to gift anything to anybody, why does one wait for 14th February? One can do so anytime, and one's emotions don't fade even if one doesn't do so on the Valentine's Day. Does one love others only on Valentine's Day?Why do we follow the western tradition so blindly? I am not against celebrating Valentine's Day(If you think that I am a Shivsainik) but one should think why one is doing the thing before doing.
Another thing I hate is gifting a greeting card to somebody. A greeting card is useful for just one day. It's crap after the day or the occasion has passed. I have never gifted a greeting card to anybody. Give anything else. If you cannot gift anything else, simply just wish the person. Nobody desires to be flooded with gifts but to be flooded with good wishes of loved ones.
Your views are welcome.

Zeno's Philosophy.

God is not separate from the world; He is the soul of the world, and each of us contains a part of the Divine Fire. All things are parts of one single system, which is called Nature; the individual life is good when it is in harmony with Nature. In one sense, every life is in harmony with Nature, since it is such as Nature’s laws have caused it to be; but in another sense a human life is only in harmony with Nature when the individual will is directed to ends which are among those of Nature. Virtue consists in a will which is in agreement with Nature. The wicked, though perforce they obey God’s law, do so involuntarily; in the simile of Cleanthes, they are like a dog tied to a cart, and compelled to go wherever it goes. In the life of an individual man, virtue is the sole good; such things as health, happiness, possessions, are of no account. Since virtue resides in the will, everything really good or bad in a man’s life depends only upon himself. He may be poor, but what of it? He can still be virtuous. He may be sentenced to death, but he can die nobly, like Socrates. Other men have power only over externals; virtue, which alone is truly good, rests entirely with the individual. Therefore every man has perfect freedom, provided he emancipates himself from mundane desires. (Zeno of Citium, 300 - 260 B.C.)
