Who says love doesn't cost a thing? An unassuming date can mercilessly burn a deep hole in your pocket and when it comes to this year's annual celebration of love - the Valentine's Week - it's a jaw-dropping Rs 12,000-crore ($2.6 billion) business!

Can we spend some time to think of homeless children and women who are struggling hard to get a handful of meal?

We need to work for better social order by employing all in the best way and making equitable distribution of wealth.
As regards expenditure on Valentine day, this is also an economic activity benefiting those in stationery, advertising, printing business. The 12,000 crore rupees worth expenditure also means income for those in the related employment. I may add that everything has become commercial. Cards are sold on all occasions like Deepawali, Karwa choth, Birth day etc. Maximum sale of cards and other gifts is on Deepawali. The corrupt officials also receive lots of gifts from tax evading and corrupting business men on Deepawali. There is no sense in singling out Valentine day for such expenditure.

People like to spend much on this day but at the same time, should also think about homeless children as mentioned in above post and playing their part by contributing towards their future.
