  2. St. Patrick's Day is celebrated on March 17, his religious feast day and the anniversary of his death in the fifth century. The Irish have observed this day as a religious holiday for over a thousand years. On St. Patrick's Day, which falls during the Christian season of Lent, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon. Lenten prohibitions against the consumption of meat were waived and people would dance, drink and feast—on the traditional meal of Irish bacon and cabbage.

  11. I think that the celebrations around the world depend on the culture which celebrates. There are many reasons to celebrate, in some cultures celebrate the death, in other for life, with flowers, alcohol, food, other cultures celebrate the marriage is celebrated in many different ways. In general the celebrations are very important for join people. Celebrations renew daily with maximum group participation, many people meet there and many things implicitly renewed. The celebrations are very important to society and culture.

  12. People around the world are accustomed to celebrate.
    It’s a universal rule: To dedicate time to something that is important for them, don't matter their beliefs.

    In these special dates, people meet with friends, family or ethnic group and they share traditions in a festive atmosphere. It’s a kind of party, where there are different elements that have value itself.

    Birthdays, Weddings, anniversary are a good opportunity for don't stay alone and try to do something fun and break with the routine.

    People do different thing. Eat a good food, drink, walk in the parades, see fireworks are in some way part the ritual of celebration.

If an infant or child dies no funeral rites are needed because you can not show respect for someone younger. Then the child is buried in silence.
