But then a person named Julius Caesar made an official calendar, and then the people used January first as their day to celebrate. Although it did have some pagan customs, some Christians used to celebrate the day for the circumcision of Christ. And Roman Catholics used to celebrate it in honor of Mary. Towards the present day, the celebration started to become its own thing, rarely involving religious meanings, but the theme and celebration is still there. ]]> 2020-01-09 20:08:56 UTC https://padlet.com/sotor12202/r1p8qe2bghz3/wish/429704039 sotor12202 https://padlet.com/sotor12202/r1p8qe2bghz3/wish/430212284 There are quite a few traditions in America when it comes to celebrating New Years.

Once I figure out what I want to do, I am gonna do as much as I can right now to achieve that goal. I also want to spend as much time that I can with my family because they mean everything to me.
