"Holidays"

What a wonderful time of year. Full of Love, Family, High Spirits and an amazing feeling of togetherness. But are the Holidays only once a year? In my opinion No. It seems to me that there are holidays year round. Some may be more celebrated or publicized than others, but there is at least one holiday almost every month that is celebrated or recognized at some level. But are the holidays on the calandar the only days that should be celebrated?
Well in my opinion No. You see with each second that passes by for every moment in the day we celebrate Life. We choose to spend our time with out loved ones because we don't know if today will end or tomorrow will come. To me time is precious and what we choose to do with our time is vital. Life is a holiday and we must live every day as such because we want to remember what we shared, if today ends or tomorrow is gone.
When a new day begins it's a holiday. Every morning I wake up and thank the Lord that I am still alive. I thank him for my family and friends that are out there on the streets supporting me mentally and emotionally. The fact that on  a daily basis I have a chance to better myeslf and show love to my family and laugh with my friend is a holiday in itself. I mean, is that not something to rejoice? Now don't get me wrong, I love the so called "normal" holidays as well. Those days are just an even greater time of rejoicing and showing love and affection to family and friends. But should we not rejoice for every new day and live it as a holiday to its fullest potential? I think that we should!
So you see, all Holidays are great. But in my opinion we should not take a "normal" day as nothing special. Every day day is a gift, a new begining. We should live it to its greatest potential because like I said, who knows if today will end or tomorrow will come. Every day should be full of Love, Laughter, and Thankfulness. For a new breath and opportunities to better ourselves and rejoice the fact that we are alive. That is why I think that every day is a Holiday.
