Happy Canadian Family Day
Today is the official Family Day in Canada, Australia, South Africa, Vietnam, Nevada, and Arizona. As the Australian celebration writes the purpose of this holiday is "...to enable workers to take a break from their hectic working lives and to spend some quality time with their family. . . ."
What about the rest of the world? Do we not get a holiday to spend time with our families? The easy answer is yes, we do. Every day is family day. Every day you can take time to be with your family, even for a few minutes to talk, laugh, eat, appreciate, say I love you, tuck in bed, kiss, read to, work beside, do an errand . . . you don't need a holiday to spend time with your family.
However, Familius thinks this Family Day is a good idea. What are your thoughts about petitioning our state and Federal governments to create a Family Day throughout the United States and other parts of the world?
