Yes. Modern life has taken far too much of the traditional celebrations already. And corporatized them into hollow shells of what they were. Your birthday is one thing that you can celebrate however you want where there is not a corporate overwhelming energy. So for my birthdays, I typically get all my friends to go Swimming. We’ll jump off a dock into the ocean or go into a cold river and have a backyard barbecue afterwards.

Is the time for us to all celebrate the joy of being alive while getting our adrenaline up.

Rituals have value.
