One Of Us Is Missing Day

July 8, Tuesday

The holiday was established in April 2021 by Latonya Brown after the tragic loss of her daughter. It is meant to remind us that life is a gift, and it is important not to miss any moment of it. The loss of loved ones is inevitable, but what matters is how we remember them and what we do next.

How it is celebrated:

1. Meetings with family or friends, during which stories are shared about those who are no longer with us.
2. Watching shared videos and photos of beloved departed people.
3. Spending time together — watching movies, listening to music, or eating dishes they loved.

Why it is important:

* It promotes spiritual healing.
* It helps find emotional reconciliation with the loss and move forward.
* It brings closer people who have experienced grief and helps create support for each other.

Other aspects:
The holiday is not tied to any specific religion, nationality, or origin: its goal is to unite all people in gratitude for life and in memory of those who have passed away.

If you plan to support yourself or loved ones on this day, you can:

* Share memories and recollections.
* Pay tribute to the departed’s favorite activity, whether it is music, movies, or food.
* Offer help to those who are also grieving — sometimes just listening is enough.
