its another good business with so many fools to spend
by Jayant Tilak on Feb 10, 2008 12:12 AM

India survived for corers of years without vanentines day. Only two hundred year old country like USA is teaching us the way of expressing such love. New generation is falling for it. May be correct or wrong. I am not to judge that. But just for the sake of easy life, do not forget our family values and social responsibilities. USA is a short story of totally around 300 years or so, not like Inida with history of corers of years. Some young acadamically qualified but socialy unaducated may not agree with me and may emphasis on celebrating Valentine's day in India to suit their commercial needs. But our culture is to celebrate each day as day of loved once. Do indians need to celebrate Mother!s, father!s, Grandma!s, Loved ones(Valentine) day. No, Every day is a day of all living beings. In crores of years History of our Indians, there is no reference of celebrating such days please.

But this does not mean that I am against the business that this day generates, which is a main intention of valentines day.

Only those can respond, who can give their very considered opinion. No foolish comments expected please.
