Valentines Day

Valentine's Day is named after Saint, valentine's a Catholic priest who lived in Rome in the 3rd Century. There are many stories about St Valentine and over time these stories grew into the legend we know today. At the time of Valentine's life, many Romans were converting to Christianity, but the Emperor Claudius II was a pagan and created strict laws about what Christians were allowed to do. Claudius believed that Roman soldiers should be completely devoted to Rome and therefore passed a law preventing them from marrying. St Valentine began to marry these soldiers in secret Christian ceremonies and this was the beginning of his reputation for believing in the importance of love. Eventually Valentine was found out and jailed for his crimes against Claudius. While imprisoned, Valentine cared for his fellow prisoners and also his jailor's blind daughter. Legend has it that Valentine cured the girl's blindness and that his final act before being executed was to write her a love message signed ‘from your Valentine'. Valentine was executed on 14 February in the year 270. It wasn't until more than 200 years later that 14 February was proclaimed St Valentine's Day. By this time Rome had become Christian and the Catholic Church was determined to stamp out any remaining paganism. A pagan fertility ritual was held in February each year and the Pope abolished this festival and proclaimed 14 February Saint Valentine's Day, thus establishing this feast day on the Catholic Calendar of Saints.The poet Chaucer in the Middle Ages was the first to link St Valentine with romantic love. This was the beginning of the tradition of courtly love, a ritual of expressing love and admiration, usually in secret. This custom spread throughout Europe and stories grew about a High Court of Love where female judges would rule on issues related to love on 14 February each year. Historians believe that these meetings were in fact gatherings where people read love poetry and played games of flirtation.

GEORGE WASHINGTON

The people you hang out with the most can lift you up as much as they can bring you to destruction. They are crucial to your mental health, your physical and emotional health, your spiritual health, and your personal success. They can either inspire you or drain you. For this reason, pick your friends wisely. Here are three compelling reasons to hang out with the right company of friends. Stress is a part of our daily lives. We start to experience it even as infants. How effectively we can manage stress in our lives, though, depends on the type of people we surround ourselves with. If we always hang out with people who themselves do not know how to deal with stress properly, we will end up having to deal with more stress. On the other hand, the right kind of people can be a huge stress relief. They are fun to be with, are optimistic, and always exude a confident and an encouraging vibe. They are not insusceptible to stress themselves, but because of their positive attitude, they have an amazing way of slashing stress and using their energy to find ways to improve their lives rather than use it to worry.Every person needs a support system that consists of either colleagues, friends, relatives, or direct family members. It is crucial to have a support system that consists of the right people. They can offer you either emotional, moral, spiritual, or even financial support. They will be the one who will back you up in difficult times. They will be the one to show you love when you need love. Most importantly, they will be the one to offer you counsel when you are going through a difficult challenge in your life.

"Right is right only when entire." -Victor Hugo

Doing what is right in difficult situations in the workplace is a huge challenge. In his book, God at Work, Ken Costa writes, ‘There are right and wrong choices … all the invented terms such as “inappropriate” and “counterproductive” are efforts to avoid the simple ethical fact that there is a right and wrong course of action.’ 
When facing a difficult pastoral situation those of us in the leadership of the church need to remind ourselves that the first question we have to ask is, ‘What is the right thing to do?’ And only then move to the second question, ‘What is the most pastoral way to do it. Of course, none of us get it right all the time. We all make mistakes. 
As Ken Costa writes, ‘We only grow in wisdom if we learn from our mistakes. Siegmund Warburg [Ken’s first boss] said on this subject: “Some name it disappointment and become poorer, others name it experience and become richer.”
