I dont do holidays either. I barely acknowledge my own birthday. I always felt like an outsider as a child, so its not like there are traditions that make it good for me. There are things i could do that would make me emotional, like certain foods, or going to church, or hearing certain songs, but i have tended to avoid those situations. Maybe now that my parents are both gone, i feel free to build my own life, even at this late stage, mebbe i will. I bought a bumper sticker years and years ago that read, "its never too late to have a happy childhood".
