Wikipedia explains the New Year an event that happens when a culture celebrates the end of one year and the beginning of the next year. Cultures that measure yearly calendars all have New Year celebrations. New Year is the world's most popularly celebrated festival across countries & region. The History or Origin of New Year dates back to the era of emperors.
The Roman emperor Julius Caesar officially declared January 1 to be a New Year in 46 B.C. Romans worshiped God Janus who had two faces, one looking forward and the other looking backward. The month of January was named after this Roman God and it gave an idea to the emperor to establish January as a gate to the New Year. It is said Caesar celebrated January 1 - New Year by ordering the revolutionary Jewish forces to route back.
Beside the Historical Knowledge, a New Year brings an end of a year when all across people celebrates while welcoming the coming of a new year. This is the time of the year when most part of the planet earth is celebrating, wishing & thinking about the future. The “New” Future.
One inspirational aspect of the New Year is that it is a “festival” that is celebrated across regions, religion or cultures. We all wish “A Happy New Year” to all without any reservations. So I can safely say that it’s a true “Global Festival”. We all celebrate the end of an era while welcoming the start of a new one. A “new” start……a new year, a new era, a new relationships, a new finding, a new love, a new apology, a new look, a new……well……“A New Start”.
So let me take this opportunity of a New Start by wishing all the current and new reader of this blog…….A VERY HAPPY & PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR ~ 2009. Let us make or do something “New”.
