How to celebrate Jul 7th
Start your day with a chocolate breakfast, because who said you can’t have dessert first? Indulge in a chocolate croissant or some Nutella on toast to kickstart your morning on a sweet note. Then, crank up the rock ‘n’ roll tunes and dance around your living room like nobody’s watching.
For lunch, why not hit up a dive bar for some classic comfort food? Enjoy a plate of mac and cheese in honor of National Macaroni Day, and pair it with a cold beer or a refreshing cocktail. Don’t forget to spread some forgiveness while you’re at it – buy a drink for a stranger or strike up a conversation with someone new.
In the afternoon, try your hand at learning a few words in Kiswahili to celebrate World Kiswahili Language Day. Challenge yourself to use them throughout the day, whether it’s greeting someone with “Jambo” or saying “Asante” when expressing gratitude. Take a moment for reflection on Tell the Truth Day, and consider sharing a personal truth with a friend or loved one.
As the day winds down, treat yourself to a strawberry sundae to celebrate National Strawberry Sundae Day. Head to a local park or garden for a peaceful stroll on National Father Daughter Take a Walk Day, enjoying the beauty of nature and the company of a loved one. Spread peace and love by reaching out to someone you haven’t spoken to in a while, or by simply sending a kind message to a friend.
Finally, end your day with a moment of serenity on World Change Day. Reflect on the positive changes you want to make in your life and take a small step towards achieving them. Whether it’s starting a new hobby, volunteering for a cause you care about, or simply being kinder to yourself, every little change counts.
Remember, celebrating these weird national holidays doesn’t have to be extravagant or costly. It’s all about finding joy in the little things, connecting with others, and taking moments throughout your day to appreciate the world around you.
