What is a special day for you? Why would you celebrate it?
Every day there is a holiday, and no matter what the occasion, it is described in the holiday calendar.
In the culture where I grew up, there were many days a year that were considered holidays, and people celebrated them following certain traditions.
Until a certain age, I looked forward to some of them, but the older I got, the clearer the meaninglessness of these holidays became to me. Even my own birthday has ceased to be a special day. After all, these days are like any others.
Then I came to the conclusion that for me, there is a holiday every day, and if I am in the mood, I can celebrate it with dinner in the company of loved ones or even alone, visit a place that is significant to me, visit a person, or buy myself or anyone around a gift.
If suddenly you want some Christmas cheer in the middle of summer, I would say, Why not? What is stopping you from giving it to yourself? Life itself is the greatest holiday.
May it be so for everyone who reads this post.
May love be with you!
