are birthdays a seasonal holiday now? They happen during a season. Yeah but I'll probably get some disagreement if i was to agree and say 'yeah they happen in the spring' probably from about 3/4 of you. it's not like christmas which is in the middle of summer for everyone.

I celebrate Christmas and Eid because mixed race, although we still celebrate Eid because it's an awkward family tradition and we all literally dread it each year, but still follow through. Christmas is great though.
Oh and Birthdays, i have one of those coming up soon and I am adamantly pretending it isn't going to happen.

Not much tbh, but I feel really bad saying that because I've always tried to appreciate both sides of my ~heritage~

Do you think you'd continue to celebrate it if/when you have children?

No, I'm not bringing any children I may have up with religion at all. Just morals. My early upbringing was a strange mixture of two very different faiths which were actually considered to be """at war""" by some after 9/11 and it resulted in me feeling very isolated and confused as a younger child.
