St. Valentine Day is still seventeen days away. That's a day young people, even teenagers take it to be their right to walk about in couples, holding hands, sitting on park benches or riversides. Saraswati was worshipped last Thursday. The goddess is believed to be the dispenser of knowledge. And so ,this day is celebrated by students with vigorous joy. This day gives them a eagerly awaited opportunity to walk the lane of love. It's an occasion when boys and girls exchange tender messages with a red rose. This is Valentine Day in advance. How's the kept around your place?

I usually send flowers to my wife. This year she has asked me for something different.

Yes, Saraswati Puja is a part of our culture and apart from the usual religious fervor, love exchanges among youths are a part of this.

It is a day for lovers but here we don't worship a goddess. We mostly give flowers and candy and maybe plan a special evening.

Mostly people of my generation regard it as an American custom but its celebration is pushed by commercial outlets and certainly many young ones recognise it.

Valentine day is a day for lovers to be romantic and have a nice night together. We have nothing planned.

Usually my husband offers me flowers and a box of chocolate. I prepare for him a nice special dinner.
