Valentines Day Warning

Coming valentines day you will find who has got real love... for the country. What else you think this old man talks about?! I am not concerned about young people loitering around. They are small children, they do what they 'have' to do... it is so natural. But i am more concerned for the country, because on that day you will find, really-small-minded people coming out in public, like cancers, to marry off couples with out their consent. But they are really dumb enough to announce it in public weeks before. Feb 11, 2015
