For me the important thing to keep in mind is that I really don't need to celebrate to be content. If the Holiday turns out to be a dudd, I simply treat it like just another day and retire early.

I know it is hard to detach from expectations and fear but detachment is really the key to equanimity. The more I see adversity from the perspective as a student the less I see myself as a victim. That is what a good program turns me into - a student.
