Write two different brief summaries that offer differing perspectives of
the article. Write the first one for an essay arguing that, contrary to
Lange's perspective, there actually is emotional significance in giving
your beloved a valentine made by someone
else, or even a digital valentine.
Write the second for an essay that questions whether all the
card-swapping of Valentine's Day is truly meaningful, rather than a
commercialized holiday that everyone takes part in simply because we're
"supposed to."
A.) Contrary to Lange's perspective there can be an emotional significance in giving your beloved a valentine made by someone else, or even a digital valentine. It all depends on the receiver of the valentine. In some circumstances you may not be able to get your beloved a physical one in time or have the money to send/make/buy one so you will need to resort to a digital one to show your beloved your feelings. You might also want to send them something more personal too though.
B.) I think card-swapping on Valentine's day is meaningful when you become the age to truly tell someone you love them or that you care. The commercialized holiday version of valentines day is for kids to learn that you should care about one another. This can be viewed as practice for when your older and can truly understand what love is. I understand that some people say you should love your special someone no matter what day it is and not just on valentines day. But it's one day a year to do something truly special to go farther out of your way to make that one person happy.
