Daily Holidays - July 26

Aunt & Uncle Day Aunt and Uncle Day is, as the name suggests, a day to celebrate a special set of relatives – your Aunts and Uncles. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/aunt-and-uncle-day/

All or Nothing Day The Romans understood it so well they had a saying: “Carpe Diem” or seize the day. All Or Nothing Day takes that spirit and urges people to break through their barriers, ignore the fears that hold them back, and make that big commitment to a better life. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/all-or-nothing-day/

One Voice Day ‘One Voice Day’ is a global initiative to unite all countries of the world in the reading of the Universal Peace Covenant at exactly 6 p.m. UT on July 26 each year. The Universal Peace Covenant is a 577-word pledge and plea to bring families, countries and the world together in a peaceful co-existence despite our constantly changing world. During this time individuals and groups in all parts of the world unite spiritually to declare their commitment to global peace. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/one-voice-day

My aunt's birthday is on Friday and the least I can do is order flowers! She's in New Jersey and I'm in New York, so stopping by is not an option, and she said she no longer uses the internets, LOL, so that's what I did last year and she called me right up...

We should take our aunts and uncles out for bagels and coffee milkshakes and read the Universal Peace Covenant. That covers four holidays.
