Celebration : Middle Way

Over the top X’mas-ish CNY festive deco at Plaza Singapura?

Why do humans ‘need’ festive days to celebrate?
Because it would be too boring to live every day without any spectacular ‘theatrics’?
Why do humans not make every day a festive day?
Because it would be too boring to live everyday with spectacular ‘theatrics’?

We need a Middle Path for celebration,
to celebrate only what’s worthy,
to commemorate without excess indulgence,
to remember the Middle Path itself…. for every other day of our lives.
