Thank you. Good to see you over here. Yes, we came up with some eclectic mix of rituals and beliefs, most of them made up. At some point, I remember as I was growing up, it felt as if every year there was something new to do, whose menaing or effectiveness nobody could explain of certify, but people followed suit anyways.

It was more for fun's sake and there were resources to do it.
Now, we have been left with the basic, the essential. Hopefuly something good will come out of this trying times.
Happy New Year to you too. My best wishes.
