I try not to dwell as there's nothing you can do about them, but it's not always easy.

I normally just shrug unless they hurt me too deeply to be ignored.

 Do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day or is it just another day for you? |

There is no tradition for exclusively Catholic holidays in Norway. They number about 150000; and nearly half are migrant workers from Poland and other Eastern European countries with no roots here. My first encounter with St Patrick's Day was when I worked alongside some Irishmen in Somalia.
I normally don't observe religious holidays, but Christmas and Easter are so integrated into society here that we are all affected, no matter our origins and beliefs. But St Patrick's Day is passing unnoticed to most Norwegians.

This year, April Fools Day coincides with Easter Day. Or was that just a prank?

Do you dwell on bad things or shrug them off and move on? I have learned to shrug them off for the most part. I tend to live in the present and look forward to the future now. |

Do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day or is it just another day for you? When I lived in Boston I did. It is a big deal there. When I lived in RI we celebrated St. Joseph's Day. |
