You know it is possible to set aside a year in which you will observe no holidays. It can be a year of rest, to see if you would benefit from restructuring your life in a different way, a way which does not include holidays that make you sad or nervous. Sometimes we outgrow old traditions and need to start new ones such as planting a tree, reading a book in a day, studying a new textbook that whole day on something that interests you. - Racer
