Saint Patrick's Day
To me Saint Patrick's Day is the happiest holiday on the
calendar......There may be other holidays that make you
happy but not as much as Saint Patty's......
People have fun on New Year's Day and on Christmas......
They stuff their faces with food on the Fourth of July
and and Thanksgiving.......They march on Memorial
and Labor Day, BUT they always have FUN on St. Patty's,
sometimes to the extreme........
It is said that the celebration is because of the Catholic
period of Lent.....It's a day off, so to speak, from being
obedient and repentant.....It was, and still is a
"let it all hang out" day.......God bless the Irish.....Pumps
