So what the heck is Global/International Family Day
celebration all about? To my surprise it is about the Global Family – all of us
– on the planet Earth. It is about love
and respect for each other – regardless of our religion, race, gender, nationalities,
economic classes, and beliefs. Imagine
that! Working to get along with others.

Global
Family Day, (One Day of Peace and Sharing) is celebrated every January 1 in the
United States and around the world as a global day of peace and sharing. It is
a day where individuals and families share food with friends (especially the
needy), make personal pledges of nonviolence, and spread a message of peace and
sharing by ringing bells or beating a drum in hopes of making society and the
world a safer place to live. Global Family Day grew out of the United Nations
Millennium celebration, "One Day In Peace." [Source: Wikipedia]
So let’s all start 2013 off on
the right foot and practice tolerance of others, showing the same respect you expect
from others, and finding a way to get along. Thank you.
