The "Blogging Circle of Friends " prompt for DAY 2162 I am looking forward to November, because... Give us as many reason as you want about why you are looking forward to November. I am looking forward to November, because the Twin Holy Days will be celebrated in on November 9 and 10. These are my favorites because they celebrate the Birth of the Bab and the Birth of Baha'u'llah. Since 2015, these two Holy Days are celebrated on "the first and the second day following the occurrence of the eighth new moon after Naw-Rúz".1 This means that these celebrations fall on different day each year. Other days to remember in November are World Citizen Day on November 4, Universal Children's Day on November 20, Thanksgiving Day on November 22, the Day of the Covenant on November 26, and the Ascension of 'Abd'l-Baha on November 28. Since I'm not planning on participating in NaNoWriMo this year, I'll focus on other writing activities, such as "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" and different contests. The "Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise" prompt for DAY 1769 Write about the weather where you are. Looks like on the weather channel, there's quite a variance among us. It's a beautiful autumn day here in Las Vegas. The sun is shining through a few fluffy white clouds. The birds are singing, the people are play and making happy sounds. I don't hear any dogs barking or cat meowing, so they are probably happily sleeping, playing, or staring at their people. Footnotes |
