Today, February 11, is a much celebrated day. It\u2019s National Make a Friend Day, National Peppermint Patty Day \u2014 and \u2014 Don\u2019t Cry Over Spilled Milk Day. Since these three important holidays always fall on the same date, I have to choose one to celebrate every year \u2014 they\u2019re all too important to \u201cshare.\u201d<\/p>\n
This year, it\u2019s Don\u2019t Cry Over Spilled Milk Day. We\u2019ve all heard the expression, \u201cdon\u2019t cry over spilled milk\u201d \u2014 it\u2019s been around seems like forever. According to my extensive research, the first historical reference of the phrase occurred in 1659. No one really knows where and when it actually originated but it likely comes from European folklore. According to several old tales, fairies were very fond of milk and would drink up any spills left behind.<\/p>\n
But regardless of the origin, it means don\u2019t worry or stress over little things. So today is a day to think positive and try to find something good in everything that happens. Actually, that\u2019s a good attitude to have regardless of what day it is. Enjoy life to it\u2019s fullest and face each day with an optimistic attitude and a smile on your face.
\nDon\u2019t worry \u2014 be happy!!
