Finally we can say that Sant Valentine´s Day more than a special day for celebrate the love and the friendship, nowadays is a business because as the time pass people belive that is better give expensive gifts than something short but with an especial feeling.
Also we can notice that some countries didn´t celebrate Sant Valentine´s Day like Italy and Germany but it is because the have anothers perspective and for them is not too neccesary to have a specific day to pass with the person that they really love.
In the other hand other countries most of time in this day they care about what they´re going to receive or what the other person is going to need but what about the time that they have to pass in this day? That is what I am talking about, people believe that is better a gift than pass all the day with you special couple or friends.
Society need to remember what is most important and leave aside to think about thw benefits that they could have in this day.

San Valentin, is really what everybody thinks?
the photo is what really matters
If you ask to someone in the street what means valentine probably
he will answer you that is a day when you express how much you love to your
couple, friends or similar, because that is the objective right? But what is
really happening nowadays is what happened with Christmas, the purpose is not
only love, is how you express it, and today a letter is not enough, or that is
what the big enterprises that win a lot of money for this holiday says, you
have to give the most expensive present that you find that day, with the hope
of fix with material things all the love that you never give her during all the
year, and why not? Take a picture for Instagram for prove how you love each
other’s, while in the rest of the day you and your lover almost talk
That is what Valentin day’s produce in our society, the need
of only show our love in that day, instead of do this all the year, and if we
talk about a more important consequences the fact that this holiday become more
for couples, produce that the number of couples that decide to have sex, this
frequently because they think that they have to do it, and for consequences the
number of pregnancy and sexual illnesses increase too
San valentin is only chocolates and flowers?
No dear.

But…are real problems?
the world is not only our neighborhood
In our society, the vanity increase day by day, the human always want to have the best in all the situations, even if this will hurt someone or even if their needs are nothing if we compare with the rest of the world
And this is exactly what is happening nowadays, where for some people a very huge problem is the velocity of the wifi
We are living in an age where the development of the technology is faster than ever, the “first world” try to improve in every single moment their skills for keep his position, and they claim that because that big effort they are the owners of the terribles “first world problems”, that in the majority of cases they take in a very serious way, we can call some of them right now
•I don’t have the blue dress that I saw only in that specific shop!
•My wifi is so slow!
•The TV programs are so boring…
•I hate that mom always cook onions!
•I got the iphone 7 instead the iphone 7 plus…I hate my parents!!!
And the list don’t end here, this kind of phrases are common in first world countries and the society try to fix it, but…are real problems? Is a real problem that you don’t have the new cellphone when in some countries they don’t have even electricity? Is fair that you scream to your mom when she cooks vegetables when a big quantity of people doesn’t have something to eat? Is not selfish if we only focus in our meter quarter land around us and suffer for silly problems while we don’t know what is happening with the rest of people?
Yes, is selfish, “the first world problems” are not real problems, but sadly we have real ones in Africa, India, Lationamerica, Israel and more countries that are fighting to survive, with starvations, with illnesses, without any kind of education, with out any kind of help
So instead of suffer by our silly problems, why we don’t try to know more about which are the real problems, and with this someday, with the strength and help of our nation, finally solve them
with the hope and desire of reach a better world
