Does the world set us up for idealistic holidays?
While I was writing this post my inbox was hit with this from Pinterest:
What if the only whisking away going on is chasing dust bunnies around the house?
It doesn't mean you'll have a terrible V-day. Yeah, I understand companies are just promoting their goods and playing mind games with us. If you were not reminded it was V-day would it have been a great day?
The mind games, especially now with social media creates unrealizable expectations which can lead to disappointment and money wasted.
Holiday pressure for most, I think, refers to the big year end holiday season. I’ve never felt pressured to find the perfect place to drink the perfect beer on St. Patrick’s Day. While there are a few great beers for my taste buds, the drinking place doesn’t matter too much. The company joining you for the celebration makes the bigger difference. My point here (it would dull reading without a point - right?) is not to let some marketing department full of clowns short of a circus, pressure you for any holiday.
However if you would like to buy me a beer for V-day, please let me know.
