Things We Forget

  • Forgiveness Friday

    A holiday where letting go feels lighter than any gift.

  • Lost Art Day

    Everyone practices something done by hand. Writing, painting, sewing, reading a read book.

  • Do Nothing Day

    Seriously. Nothing. No plans, no chores, no goals. Rest can be revolutionary.

  • Love Letters Day

    People write love letters—to friends, family, partners, even themselves. Everyone deserves a love letter.

  • The Great Complaints Exchange

    Everyone can complain—but only if you pair it with one solution. Children especially are brought to company board meetings and political gatherings, because they tend to have open minds. Positivity…

  • No Hurry Day

    Everything slows down—speed limits, schedules, speech. Everyone can savor the moment.

  • Apology Day

    Everyone apologizes for something. Healing disguised as a holiday.

  • Global Pet Adoption Day

    No one buys pets today—only rescues and fosters. Shelters would empty, and hearts would be full.

  • Left-Handers Appreciation Day

    A day to appreciate left-handed people and appreciate the struggles they face in a world made for right handed people.

  • Dream Catcher Day

    People share one dream—no matter how wild—and take one step toward it, however small.
