Every time I look at social media, it is another special day or a special month.
You know what I mean. Boss's Day. Hot Dog Day. Cancer Awareness month. National No Rhyme nor Reason Day.
Yes, the last one is an actual day. It is a day celebrating words that do not rhyme with anything.
Some special day designations are serious, and some seem frivolous. But for some person or a group of people, that one topic was so intriguing, interesting, or heartfelt; they wanted to recognize it with its own day or month.
Often these specially designated days are not interesting to us until they hold meaning. Diagnosed with breast cancer or know someone who has been? We rally around information sharing and fundraising for breast cancer awareness.
It is not wrong to do so; it is human nature. We are drawn to those things that impact us personally or those close to us. If not, then we may not pay too much attention.
For the days that may seem more frivolous, like Blue Popsicle Day or Guacamole Day, there are reasons for the days. They are to educate on the history, the joy and share curious facts about that particular day.
This podcast is about MY favorite monthly designation.
Fall Hat Day.
