TOO MUCH XMAS? π π₯³ I hope you didnβt overindulge this Christmas, but then, thatβs what itβs all about isnβt it? π Pampering the senses with decorations, lights, carols and Christmas feasts. ππ» Lavishing each other with parties, gifts, and oft-times, new experiences. ππ And itβs something weβve been doing for thousands of years. To celebrate the passing of winter, the Ancient Greeks held the festival of Haloa around the same time as Christmas. While the men made all the preparations, the women drank and devoured cock-shaped cakes. π₯ Later, everyone sang and danced the night away around a bonfire, talking dirty. π«¦π Yep, those Ancient Greeks knew how to party - as well as do philosophy. Indulging ourselves is a fucking great part of being alive, and itβs wonderful that we have a specific time of year to loosen up and devote ourselves to celebration. ππ₯° Next cocky philosopher post coming soon! π
