A kiss can show many feelings,
like love, passion, comfort, and joy. It can make the connection between two
people stronger and bring them closer. Kissing is a universal way to
communicate that goes beyond borders, cultures, and ages. It's a simple and
personal act that can express a lot without needing any words.
International Kissing Day is
a delightful occasion dedicated to celebrating the simple yet profound act of
kissing. Observed on July 6th each year, this day is all about recognizing the
joy and significance of kisses in our lives. From a tender peck on the cheek to
a passionate embrace, kissing plays a crucial role in expressing love,
affection, and connection.
This special day reminds us of
the important role kisses have in various cultures and relationships around the
world. Whether you're sharing a sweet moment with a partner or exchanging a
friendly greeting, International Kissing Day is the perfect opportunity to
appreciate and celebrate this universal gesture of affection.
History:
The ritual of kissing started with the Romans who used three forms of kissing to express themselves - the osculum (peck on the cheek), savium (eager mouth kisses) and basium (kisses on the lips). The French people started the French kiss during the World War I.
Significance:
While it is a beautiful thing to express our
emotions to the person we love, we should always know to ask for consent before
we kiss someone. A kiss, placed inappropriately, can make a person
uncomfortable. A kiss is meant for making the other person feel loved and cared
for. International Kissing Day is observed to understand the benefits of
kissing and how it is important for expressing our feelings.
