Love is such an important thing to all of us. No matter how much some of us might pretend that, either we don't have a need or the time for love, or that we're happily single, it's probably safe to say that deep down we all crave a little bit of love and affection; after all, there's nothing quite like having someone close, especially during those long and cold winter nights.
However, the next few months are ideal moments for anyone on the lookout for love. In addition to Christmas - where all those Christmas parties present plenty of chances for social networking opportunities of an altogether more traditional kind - the next couple of months will see the arrival of Valentine's Day; which, in itself, is a fantastic opportunity to both give and receive outstanding Valentines Gifts.
For anyone in the early stages of romance, one of the most touching Valentine's Day Gifts possible could be to follow the legendary Stevie Wonder's advice, and make that call to say "I love you". Released in 1984 under the Motown label, I Just Called to Say I Love You is one of Stevie Wonder's most successful singles - in the UK alone, the song made it to number one for a total of six weeks - and has probably been the soundtrack to a fair few Valentine's Day Gifts and romantic celebrations. Stevie Wonder's many other hits include Superstition, A Place in the Sun, Ebony and Ivory and Ribbon in the Sky.
However, should you be the type of individual who doesn't enjoy making those types of calls, what are the best types of Valentine's Day Gifts for showing how you really feel? One possible choice could be the I Love You Magic Message Egg. One of the best Valentine's Day Gifts for saying those few magic words, the I Love You Magic Egg is one of those cracking gifts that really have to be seen to be believed. All the recipient of your choice has to do to reveal their special Valentine's Day Gifts message is crack open, water and enjoy; just make sure they water the I Love You Message Egg each and every single day.
Alternatively, why not opt for Valentines Gifts that give a loud and clear message with instant results? The Personalised Love Mug is of the best Valentine's Day Gifts for showing someone how much they are loved. Made to be 100 per cent dishwasher safe, the Personalised Love Mug is exclusively designed to feature the name of a person of your choice.
Or, alternatively, you could opt for a Giant Inflatable Heart. While admittedly not the most conventional of Valentine's Day Gifts, a Giant Inflatable Heart is a great way to romantic notions off your chest; it's honest, original and straight to the point. It might not be all that subtle, but when you're thinking of Valentine's Day Gifts that get the right message across, subtlety should be the last thing on your mind.
Interestingly, the history of the heart as a symbol of different elements of the human spirit is a long one. In addition to representing the feelings and sentiments that lay behind Valentines Gifts, hearts can also represent a number of human traits, including spirituality, emotion and intelligence.
And while many Valentine's Day Gifts, in addition to other items, might well be adorned with the iconic heart shape, the much-celebrated image is actually quite dissimilar in appearance to a real human heart. Although the reasoning behind the design is not clear, it has been suggested that the iconic heart shape is actually representative of a cow's heart; the likeness is still not clear, but the image is less dissimilar to a human heart. There have also been other suggestions, including the idea that the heart design can also resemble features of the female body, or that it originates from coins from the ancient city of Cyrene, a Greek colony in what is now Libya. |
