Around the world: There are many special
days throughout the year when we pause, reflect and even question. All are
holidays. Some are unique
holy
days (like
Christmas in our tradition) and
national days of remembrance (Presidents' Week,
4th of July,
Labor Day,
Veteran's Day,
Thanksgiving... ). Others seem to be just a
time for release (New Years, birthdays,
Valentines,
Halloween...). Holidays add special flavors
and textures to life. Holidays help us all understand from where we have come
and to where we hope to go. Holidays
help us mark our time and number our days. So, let us be thoughtful.
