Manufacturing Love on a Man Made Holiday

-Samantha Patterson

            So what is love, can it be defined as an intimate attraction toward one another, or can it be defined by one day every February. I collected an article about Valentines Day from our own Spartan Daily; in this issue Staff Writer Samantha Patterson drills the points of this “Superficial Holiday.” In this persuasive piece she pulls up the point of how people create a day that enables businesses to capitalize on nonsense. In here she pulls up the point of shouldn't a significant other feel like doing this throughout the year not just on a specific day?

            I my self think Valentines Day is a little overrated but also see the good within. In this day in time many people get to busy with all they have going on in their lives to realize that companionship is something that is more valuable than money, or time. I think it gives the hard working class a day to have an excuse to drop all they are doing and spend some quality time with one another. Very rarely do people go out of their way to do a nice or romantic deed for their significant other. Its kind of nice to have a day set fourth to promote this need for well-being.
