I prefer my fresh flower arrangements to fully die and dry before I replace them with fresh ones. There’s something just as beautiful about a dead flower as an alive one 🥀

Here in the U.S. the holiday season is truly upon us!
🍷🎉🎁🥂 What is the history of “The Holidays”?? :
The concept of “the holidays” as a distinct season encompassing multiple celebrations largely developed in the 19th and 20th centuries, but its roots are much older. Here's an overview:
Pre-modern Origins
- Winter Celebrations: Many cultures celebrated during the darkest time of the year. Ancient festivals like Yule (Scandinavian), Saturnalia (Roman), and other solstice celebrations provided communal joy during the winter.
- Religious Holidays: By the Middle Ages, Christian observances like Advent and Christmas were widely celebrated, and Jewish Hanukkah traditions were established.
19th Century: Christmas Takes Center Stage
- The Rise of Modern Christmas: By the Victorian era, Christmas gained prominence as a time for family gatherings, gift-giving, and charity, especially through works like Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol (1843).
- Hanukkah's Shift: In the late 19th century, Hanukkah became more emphasized in Jewish communities, especially in North America, partly to align with the growing societal focus on December holidays.
20th Century: “The Holidays” as a Season
- Commercialization and Inclusivity: The 20th century saw the blending of religious and secular traditions, particularly in the United States, as retailers promoted a “holiday season” for marketing purposes. This began to include Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, and eventually Kwanzaa (introduced in 1966).
- Post-WWII Boom: After World War II, with the rise of suburbia and mass marketing, the idea of "the holidays" as a multi-week, culturally inclusive season became widespread.
- Media Influence: Films, TV specials, and music (e.g., Irving Berlin's "White Christmas") reinforced the idea of a festive, inclusive season.
Today, “the holidays” broadly refers to a time from late November to early January, incorporating Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s, celebrated in both religious and secular contexts.

"That Veronica Vaughn is one piece of ace. I know from experience, dude. If you know what I mean."
"No, you don’t."
"Well, not me personally, but a guy I know... him and her GOT IT ON. Woooo-eee!"
"No, they didn’t."
“No, no, no, they didn’t. But you can imagine what it’d be like, huh? Huh? Huh?!"

"Schicksalstag" or "Day of Fate"
November 9th has been a historically eventful date, marked by pivotal moments that have shaped world history, particularly German History. Here are some of the major events associated with this date:
1. Fall of the Berlin Wall (1989) – Perhaps the most famous event of November 9th, the fall of the Berlin Wall marked the beginning of the end for the Cold War. On this day, East Germany announced that all its citizens could visit West Germany, leading to people gathering at the wall, tearing it down, and reuniting with friends and family after decades of separation.
2. Kristallnacht (1938) – Known as the "Night of Broken Glass," Kristallnacht was a coordinated attack on Jewish homes, businesses, and synagogues across Nazi Germany. This tragic event, instigated by the Nazi regime, marked a significant escalation in anti-Semitic policies, leading to further persecution and eventually the Holocaust.
3. The Beer Hall Putsch (1923) – Adolf Hitler attempted to seize power in Germany with an ill-fated coup known as the Beer Hall Putsch in Munich. Although it failed, this event propelled Hitler into the national spotlight and laid the groundwork for his later rise to power.
4. The Abdication of Kaiser Wilhelm II (1918) – Toward the end of World War I, Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany abdicated on November 9th. This led to the end of the German Empire and paved the way for the establishment of the Weimar Republic, marking a significant shift in German politics.
5. The Declaration of the German Republic (1918) – Coinciding with the Kaiser’s abdication, Philipp Scheidemann proclaimed Germany a republic from a balcony of the Reichstag in Berlin. This event marked Germany's shift toward democracy, albeit a fragile one, as it eventually fell under Nazi control.
These events make November 9th a day associated with both progress and tragedy, especially in German history, giving it the nickname "Schicksalstag" or "Day of Fate" in Germany.
