The month of February has begun with all the "love is in the air" feels because a very important observance of Valentine's Day 2020 is around the corner. Starting tomorrow, Valentine Week, which is celebrated a week in advance before February 14 will begin. But it is not just Valentine's Day that's around the corner, a very significant festival of Mahashivratri will be marked exactly a week later. Mahashivratri 2020 falls on February 21, this year. For every single out there, clearly the later is an awaited time compared to the day of love. The same sentiment is already reflecting online as funny memes and jokes showing eagerness for Mahashivratri are being shared online.

The feast of St Valentine marked in the 270 AD evolved into a celebration of love. Over the years, with pop culture and movies, the day became more commercialised, we agree. While couples eagerly await the celebration, singles are not really fond of the PDA that goes online, more so these days. A week later, a very significant festival of Mahashivratri, which is the "long night of Shiva" will be celebrated. Lord Shiva is of great importance in Hindu mythology and on this day, devotees perform worship throughout the night. The day has not just religious but even spiritual connotations. Lord Shiva is also considered a favoured God for most youngsters, which is why the eagerness for this festival is more than the day of love. Those who are awaiting Mahashivratri have taken to social media to pass a joke on Valentine's Day.

The devotees of Lord Shiva are more concerned about the celebration of Mahashivratri over Valentine's Day. What is your preference? Are you excited for Valentine's celebrations which begin tomorrow or have your devotion to Lord Shiva more?
