Just imagine life without holidays! For example, if people refused the New Year ... First, winter will lose its main "decoration". There will be no decorated Christmas trees in apartments and squares, a table bursting with salads and other dishes, not all of which guests have time to try in the old year, there will be no gifts, happy kids who come up with something to ask Santa Claus will disappear ... And secondly, there will not be a few extra weekends, or even a whole week of pleasant winter doing nothing.
What would have happened without March 8? Bouquets of primroses, crowds of women, happy with the attention of women, a reason to congratulate mom and spend time with her would disappear ...
And what kind of life would it be without birthdays? How would people generally count the number of years they have lived in the world? How would people, seemingly not united with each other, be gathered around one table ?!
Perhaps the question of why we love the holidays disappears by itself. This is clear to everyone.
By the way, many people forget that in addition to the "main" holidays, which are certainly celebrated by everyone, there are other, smaller, but no less wonderful celebrations.
To find out what holiday is today , just ask a search engine about it. How many different reasons to drink and celebrate mankind has come up with - a question, perhaps, rhetorical. You can always throw yourself a little dentist day gala dinner and don't care if you're not a dentist. Dentists are courageous people who save you from toothache and are not afraid of a drill. It's a sin not to celebrate their professional holiday.
And if you are lucky enough to work in a government institution, or your boss sacredly honors the Labor Code, then find out when additional weekends will appear this year, and when there are short working days, production calendar for 2014 . The most relevant information will be collected here, the main thing is not to confuse the dates, because if on a normal day you leave work early, thinking that the shift is shortened on the day before the holiday, the boss will not understand you for sure. But, perhaps, colleagues will support.
And do not forget: it is worth preparing for each holiday in advance, this is the only way you can tune in to the right wave. Remember that anticipation of the New Year that you had as a child? It is because of him that this day brought you so much joy. Now, of course, such events no longer seem so important to you. Therefore, the pleasure from them is less. But if you start to prepare in advance, think about what you would ask Grandfather Frost, choose a gift for everyone who will be with you at the same table on December 31 - childish joy will return, you will see!
