Celebration means that people are gathered together to celebrate an important event. Holidays are also a celebration to recognize something that helps to gain the things that we have right now even if it happens a very long time. Something that is part of our history. There are also a lot of people who fight and sacrifice their lives for the benefit of their countrymen. And it is only right for us to honor patriots and to give tribute to their bravery.
