December 12, 2023

December 12th should already be a holiday.  It’s Frank Sinatra’s birthday.  But the day will now become an actual holiday—one that Hallmark will not make cards for.  

This year—and every year thereafter—December 12th will be known as National “Sibling Get Over It” Day.

Have you been carrying on a feud with a sibling or siblings for many years??  Many people are in such feuds—often forgetting the original reason for the feud.  A lot of the feuds are one sided.  One sibling has negative energy in their life.  The other sibling doesn’t even think about it.

December 12th will be the day to Get Over It. This is the best possible day for this new holiday—right before Christmas.

Think back to your younger years.  The birthdays and holidays you celebrated with your siblings.  The trips to grandparents’ houses, the games you played—ones you invented and ones you played on a Monopoly board.  Those memories fade from memory when a sibling feud, either one sided or two sided, is entrenched. 

Oftentimes sibling feuds have to do with real or perceived slighting of a parent or parents by a sibling.  What if those parents were here to witness the feud?  What would they tell their children??   Keep the feud going?  Or Get Over It?  Of course, they would tell them to Get Over It.

This will be a great holiday.  No need to exchange presents.  No commercialization.  All you must do is get an olive branch and extend it (without slapping your sibling with it!)

And think about this—we already have a song for the holiday!  The Eagles knew that one day a holiday would be born that their song would be associated with!  So, thanks to Don Henley, Glenn Frey, Randy Meisner, Don Felder, et.al.

Happy National “Sibling Get Over It” Day to you and your siblings…
