While the Feast of St. Valentine has been celebrated since 496, it wasn’t until Chaucer wrote a poem in 1382 that the celebration became associated with romance and even at that only became more widely recognized in this country in the 19^th century.  Is it possible that as Unitarian Universalists, we are uniquely suited to reflect on those earliest years to find inspiration for a richer, more inclusive and purposeful celebration today?
