Sacred
Day
My sacred day would have to be New Year’s Eve. It is the
time of a year when, as Eliade (2005) figuratively describes it, “the abolition
of time is possible […], in which the world is destroyed and recreated” (p.
62). It is a day when my families and friends gather together at a friend’s house
to enjoy and celebrate the start of a new year. On this day, everyone in my
family would make a New Year’s list of resolutions while we drink our glasses
of Sparkling Cider, and begin the countdown of New Year’s Day. This day
represents Eliade’s idea of regeneration. People and objects regain definition;
structure and order take shape but with new energy and vitality.
