WhEn... tO CeleBRaTe, Or nOt To CeLEbRaTe, iS tHE qUesTIoN!!

Of late there has been a string of days dedicated to things and people. Fathers’ day, Mothers’ day, Music day, Widows’ day and what not!!

The day is not far when there would be more than 365 different things fighting with one another for a unique day demanding celebration. I am sure there is some economic aspect to it. The greeting card industry must be the one benefiting the most. No wonder there has been a sudden burst of websites selling cards, flowers, mementos, etc.

Anyway.... what I find interesting is that, associated with every special day are largely two groups of people. One which doesn’t mind celebrating Valentine's to Aids day! And the other which mostly does the work of criticizing the first group!

I often see people posting pictures of them with their mother, sister, brother or guitar on ‘World respective day’. Most of them I guess had been waiting for the appropriate time to post the relevant photo.  The pictures are often beautifully edited. Some even make wonderful collages with photos chosen after a great amount of thought. Then comes another subgroup of people who believe in celebrating the spirit of every occasion by wishing everyone. It hardly matters to them that their dog doesn’t have an account (most probably :P)  in that networking site. According to them, wishing it online is what the aim should be!! And now the second group of people comes into the picture.

For these people celebrating a particular day is a sin! They take it for granted that the people belonging to the first group never ever respect their parents or siblings all the year round and then one fine day they show PDA in social networking sites!

They find these people too nyaka and will go on commenting how silly and naive these people are. Who is right would be a very tricky and dangerous question to answer and I wouldn’t dare to think about it.

Personally speaking, even I don’t celebrate the different relevant unique 'DAYS'. The reason being sometimes I become too much occupied with my other unimportant jobs to celebrate or sometimes I don’t have enough money to spare and the rest of the time just because of the circumstances. But people who always manage their time wonderfully and sometimes even their finances beforehand to save something for the special day, hats off to you all. After all, theres no one in this world who doesn’t like to pampered :) .
