@Awareness_Days (& #AwarenessWeeks #AwarenessMonths): Because People Need Sympathy for Their #Circumstances
It's Singles Awareness Day (the humorous holiday for we who didn't get to celebrate Valentine's Day 'the standard way').
And looking for more information on that day, I found AwarenessDays; and I want to join their mission---'to make awareness-days more easily accessible to a wider audience, improving the accuracy of information covering the leading awareness-days & -events.'
Their front page is linked through 'the main word' below; but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...
The word “Circumstances” (Condition of Life, Material Welfare) is built on ancient words that mean "to Stand (i.e. |Encamp, Settle) |Around (|Circum-)" (the "Formality about an Important Event" of #PompAndCircumstance--title of the song that's a staple of U.S. graduation-ceremonies--is famous from Shakespeare's Othello).
'A huge goal of the site' (i.e. something it'll frequently ask for you to do) is to get lots of paying-subscribers---they are constantly updating their calendar-information with celebrations & events & new circumstances of people who need your sympathy, and probably provide subscribers with notifications of upcoming events on the calendar (which they also give to subscribers).
Here are a few of the days for which I need(ed) your Awareness:
- Dental Health Awareness Month (we all need to remember our teeth), Boost Your Self-Esteem Month (sure, maybe "reality" implies that 'we're not worth thinking-about'; but ... 'reasons-why you are loved' would practically ruin the purity of The Gift!) - February
- Singles Awareness Day - February 15
- Shrove Tuesday (a.k.a. Mardi Gras, Pancake Tuesday) (the day when Catholics celebrate 'one last blowout of laziness & gluttony etc.' before our pre-Resurrection 'forty days' in the desert (Quarantine?) of Lent) - February 16
- Do a Grouch a Favor Day (Remind us grouches that life's only as bad as we say it is.) - February 16
- Random Acts of Kindness Day - February 17
- ... I guess I'll limit 'this share' to a few upcoming/just-passing events, because it tells me,
Whoa there! It looks like you’ve hit the limit of free event views this month ...
... but I'll link to some of the additional days for which 'I beg your awareness' (tho--as mentioned--you might only be able to see 'more information' about 5-or-10 of the Awareness Days) - Categories
