I have been having a lot of fun this year looking for
unusual and creative ways to celebrate.
I have found some quirky holidays (remember Take your Houseplant for a
Walk Day last month). But as unusual as
some holidays are, and there is probably
a holiday for everything, this month has a holiday for anything you want. On August 27th, you have to
celebrate Just Because Day.
The idea is that since we spend much of our days doing
things we HAVE to do, why not have a day to do something for no reason than
Just Because. I like it. Doesn’t everyone want to do something or like
to do something for no particular reason.
Maybe you see a new outfit at a store. You don’t need it for an event. You might have plenty of clothes. You just want it so buy it, just because.
Maybe you want to go on a picnic but it is not a weekend day
or a holiday. So take the day off and
have a picnic, just because.
Figure out something you want to do on this day and just do
it. Or better yet wake up that morning
and do the first fun thing that comes to your head. And make sure to let everyone know you are
doing it Just Because. Who knows if
enough people do something just because it might become a national holiday
marked in red on the calendar for no reason than just because.
