JOURNAL #9

9. Given the authority to establish a holiday, what would you choose to commemorate? Why? What would the celebration look like?

Certain holidays commemmorate outstanding people based on their achievements usually within their nation. That is why there should be a holiday established about our own self worth, the true "independence" day, where it takes a day to observe our own achievements for the experienced and our free will and a time for people to realize what they can achieve if they think they have not achieved anything and to realize their own self worth and to utilize it well. Surprisingly there is a fair amount of people out there that do not realize they have achieved anything, most cases it is true, and in some cases they are not. It will be akin to labor day in manner where not only laborers, but rather everyone takes a day off because of their contributions to theirself, as egotistical that may sound, but just as people celebrate their collaborative efforts, they should be able to commemorate their independent power of themselves.
