Celebrate Responsibly

This past Independence Day saw a lot of injuries and deaths due to various celebrations. The most common culprit is often celebratory gunfire. Firing off gunshots in celebration could lead to disposed bullets hitting someone or something. Not being safe using things like fireworks or sparklers can also be dangerous. There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to celebrate certain occasions. If you are going to do so, though, consider your life and the lives of others as you celebrate. Any kind of celebration is meant to be just that- celebration, happiness, and jubilation. You don't want what should be a joyous time to end up being a somber time. So please be sure to celebrate responsibly when you can.

The impacts of celebrating can be further enhanced if smoking or drinking is involved. Impaired judgment can be just as damaging in regards to celebrating. You certainly want to be careful if you are drinking and/or smoking prior to or during celebrating. Any number of things can happen as you are high or drunk. If you are too drunk to where you can't drive home safely, have someone else [who isn't drunk or high] drive home.

Let me get back to fireworks and sparklers for a moment. If you are in a place where fireworks are disallowed, PLEASE don't use them in such locations. There is a chance you could start a fire or get someone hurt. People will still pop off fireworks in places and times where they are disallowed. You can't pardon the foolishness of such individuals, so make sure to take things carefully.

Having said all of this, I'd like to offer my condolences to those who may have been injured or killed celebrating anything recently. Just be careful and mindful as you celebrate. You may also elect to do the simplest things in this situation- either celebrate privately or don't celebrate at all.
