Childhood often casts a magical, warm, and joyful glow on New Year's Eve. As we grow older, the sense of wonder and anticipation doesn't always align with the calendar, and it can't be summoned on command. Even with a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, a festive sweater, sparkling garlands, and the scent of tangerines, the celebration can sometimes feel like a dreary obligation rather than a joyous occasion.

If desired, consider postponing the festivities to a time when the mood feels right. Alternatively, embrace an alternative New Year's celebration on a different date, like the Chinese or Jewish New Year.
