Katie, I love this so much: the idea that a celebration can be an everyday thing, something without logic, without rationale. We need more of that in the apocalypse. I read a recent newsletter by Caroline Donofrio that references a Kurt Vonnegut quote: "And how should we behave during this Apocalypse? We should be unusually kind to one another, certainly. But we should also stop being so serious. Jokes help a lot. And get a dog, if you don't already have one." I think this is related to what you have written. To invite in more lightness, more celebration, even when it feels like there's no real reason to. ✨
