American Holidays.....not counting Christmas

Tweet

As Americans, we have a holiday of some kind at least once a month. Count them, gov't holidays, bank holiday, traditional, religious holidays. I think we are the only country with so many holidays! Now with the Internet, we can literally scream it to the world! But do we need to. I've had other foreign friends thru the years in the web, and not many of them have "screamed" about their holidays from the rooftops, like we Americans do. How many American's know when holidays are in China, France, Russia? I think each country, culture should be able to celebrate their own holidays without Western influence. We are all becoming "the same", instead of keeping hold of our culture identity. Should we "tone it down a bit", or keep the world in envy of our holidays and the way we celebrate them?
