changes..

I would like to point out one thing related to new year's eve. Cultures all over the world, let's not call them primitive cultures, though they might be seen so from our 'civilised' world, have rituals. Rituals are something what keeps the culture together, what gives every member a specific place and also gives 'clarification' to different behaviour we might experience. We can imagine that celebration of new year's eve is something similar. In that specific time people behave differently, in a manner they saw or were told to behave (sometimes not even in such manners). Maybe it is just my own feeling, but I believe that all rituals should put a footprint in our souls, memories, should be something like a comma in a sentence. Should separate something what was before and after such ritual. Here I might be trully mistaken, because not all rituals are like that. Some of them are done to remember our ancestors where old cultures thought that if it will be not done, our ancestor will get angry and will make trouble in living..

The main thought here is to express my wonder in celebrating new year's eve. Though this ritual can be taken as being similar to other rituals from old cultures it does not fulfil (this is trully subjective) the purpose of separating something old from something new. Some may not agree as we have a calendar change (also many goverments take new year's eve as opportunity to raise all possible taxes and in this way 'decrease salaries'). The fact what I miss in new year's eve is something like a restart option. But there is none, the life does not begin again, just continue, but it is not different, it is still the same life, nothing change, just calendar which is not astrologicaly based (like the luna calendar) not even precisely based on Jesus's birth. The only one thing which reminded me differences between old and new year were accounting accruals etc. which is economy based.

There might be the problem. I don't want accounting to rule my life.
