Window sitting day

Flowers in pots are most often displayed on windowsills, and less often - baskets of sweets, candles, and decorative lamps Pets love to sit by the window - cats and dogs, watching what is happening on the street Window sofas in the kitchen or living room are an ideal place for those who value privacy and comfort Dreamers and visionaries, for whom contemplation of the world is akin to meditation, came up with an unusual celebration - Window Sitting Day A funny holiday is celebrated every year on December 10th Enjoying picturesque views and sunshine is not the only charm of such a pastime From ancient times to the present day, window sills have been used for relaxation, communication with friends and loved ones Students sit on them, play dates, and smokers exhale streams of smoke through the windows Window sills in the front door are a great place to wait for a child who has lost his keys, for his parents, or for a young man to wait for his beloved who has not yet come home Psychologists talk about opening windows of opportunity that each of us can take advantage of at different periods of life; historians talk about the window cut by Peter I into Europe These concepts are associated with the manifestation of determination and the beginning of active actions, because a barrier in the form of glass no longer isolates a person from the outside world The window sill gives a feeling of freedom and lightness also because the person sitting on it looks at the world from top to bottom Rebels prefer sitting with their feet by the window It symbolizes the violation of prohibitions and rules according to which sofas, armchairs and other furniture should be used for this purpose At home, this relaxation area looks like both a couch located above the floor level and a bean bag chair standing by the French window The presence of an “observation post” provides an opportunity to contemplate the changing seasons, clouds floating in the sky, the games of neighboring kids, launching boats through puddles A bird feeder hung on a tree branch scraping against the glass will give you the joy of winter communication with siskins, jays, sparrows and other birds You can sit comfortably on the windowsill with a book, a cup of tea or a glass of wine in your hands The view from the window and events that happen on the street sometimes replace watching news on TV or movies from a tablet Demonstrations, festivals and other festive processions are best observed from a window sill It’s also convenient for sending sunbeams through the windows of a neighboring house and sending air kisses to loved ones behind whom the front door slammed shut a couple of minutes ago Window Sitting Day offers these and other pleasant things to do for romantics and cynics, dreamers and skeptics, cholerics and melancholics
