Lucky Penny Day – Pennies are
made from copper, or at least they used to be, I don't know if they
still are. Anyway, copper represented the Greek God Venus and the
Greeks believed it could protect against evil and attract love.
Therefore, finding a penny meant you were protected from evil and
might find love soon. That is what makes them lucky. Keep your eyes
peeled for pennies today, maybe they still have enough copper in them
so that their power still works.
National Taffy Day – Taffy is
soft, and chewy and can be many different flavors. See if you can
find some today, it would make a great dessert.
Declaration Of The Bab Day –
On this day the Baha'is celebrate from sunset last night to sunset
tonight. They are celebrating the origins of their faith which began
in 1844 when Siyyid Ali-Muhammad announced that he was the bearer of
a Divine Revelation, which would prepare humanity for the arrival of
the Promised One which has been foretold by all the world's religion.
World Crohn's and Colitis Day -
This day was created by Josh Golder in 2007 and is recognized by the
Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America. Josh has Crohn's disease
and is a prominent figure in the Crohn's community. This day is
about bringing together people who have been affected by either
disease as well as their friends and family to spread awareness of
these diseases.
World Turtle Day – This day is
sponsored by American Tortoise Rescue and has been around since 2000.
The idea for today is to encourage people to take action to help
turtles and tortoises survive.
To celebrate today, read about the Baha
religion and find out if the Promised One is going to come anytime
soon. Then find out where you can go to help turtles and tortoises
and then go there and help the turtles and tortoises. While you are
out and about doing all that turtle helping, watch out for pennies.
If you find any give them to the turtles because they apparently need
the good luck more than you do. When you get home, tell someone you
know about Crohn's disease and Colitis so you can spread awareness
and then share some taffy with your family.
