Overcomplicating

Why do celebrations frustrate us? I feel guilty that I'm frustrated, I should be looking forward to it, and know exactly how to make someone happy. It shouldn't be a chore to celebrate but often that is the case. Celebration is a simple thing, just to be happy to be somewhere. Yet somehow without something amazing it doesn't feel celebrated. We overcomplicate things. We have strange expectations of how things need to be.

What am I talking about? I'm confused.

For me, the ultimate celebration would be something severely simple. Blowing out a candle on a cupcake in a tent, or drawing on wet sand at a beach next to a fire... Little moments like that make life's dearest memories. But how to create that for someone else? How to make their dreams come true before they dream it?

Overcomplicated.

I'm going crazy. I need sleep.
