Valentine’s Day—the day of love is here. Valentine’s Day, which falls on the 8th day of Valentine’s Week—a day after Hug Day, is about expressing your deep love and affection for that special someone. Valentine’s Day embodies the spirit of love and affection. This day not only teaches us to appreciate the love in every form of our relationships but also helps us to realize the importance of the most beautiful connection in our lives. Valentine’s Day also carries a beautiful message that ‘Love is the most beautiful feeling and we should value our close relationships. Our loved ones are the biggest strength in our lives.’

 

The origin of Valentine’s Day can be traced back to the story of St. Valentine who is remembered for his selfless acts of help for couples. It is said that St. Valentine was sentenced to imprisonment and beheaded by Emperor Claudius II for solemnizing the marriage of couples secretly. On the day of his execution, St. Valentine sent a note to Julia, the blind daughter of the jailer, that mentioned ‘Your Valentine’. Since then, Valentine’s Day is celebrated every year on February 14.

Valentine’s Day is also associated with Lupercalia—an ancient Roman festival for fertility— and Cupid, the Roman God of love and desire.

If you are planning to surprise your loved one and want to make this Valentine’s Day a memorable celebration of love and connections, then here are some curated quotes, wishes, messages and greetings which may help to express your romantic feelings to your special someone:

Actress Nefisa Mkhabela recently appeared on DJ Sbu’s YouTube channel, Hustlers’ Corner, for an interview.

The House of Zwide actress talked up about her acting career, studies, and how she was able to buy her first car and construct her mother a house before the age of 21.“So, my salary was just going there. I said build it from scratch,” she added.

Nefisa stated that she landed her first role while in Grade 8. She claimed she got a call from her agency informing her that The Fergusons wanted to cast her in their 13-part series.“I was a child, and I didn’t know what was happening. I wasn’t educated about what happens on set. So, for me at the time, it was genuinely just about enjoying the moments I had there.“I was just like oh, I am here to act, and I am with these legends. I think I was blessed to do that in high school because Onalerona (her House of Zwide character) blew up immediately after I finished high school.”

The TV celebrity urged young people to be focused and grounded, saying that success has no age limit.

“I didn’t know 10 years ago that I would be in this position. But I feel like if you believe in God and if you believe in yourself, anything is possible.

“I would advise staying at home and not moving out immediately because it helps to keep you grounded. A lot of the time, you tend to fall into pressures of the society and friends. Dedicate your money to your skill and growing as an individual,” Nefisa said, adding that she is still staying with her father.
