I may be off a day or month, since dates differ online, like Hanukkah and Easter; but still, Bodhi Day is part of a terrific storyline.
Artist and lifelong adventuress Andrea Jansen, supported by faithful ButterCup, spent over a dozen years recovering from her midlife crisis. What began as a travel blog developed into a personal tale of avoiding homelessness and hopelessness with thought-provoking points of view; plus some new adventures, too. Welcome!

Happy Bodhi Day
"Bodhi Day is the Buddhist holiday that commemorates the day that the historical Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, experienced enlightenment. According to tradition, Siddhartha had recently forsaken years of extreme ascetic practices and resolved to sit under a Bodhi tree (Ficus religiosa), and simply meditate until he found the root of suffering, and how to liberate oneself from it." From Wikipedia.
