Tenderness Toward Existence Day is observed every January 19th and encourages individuals to connect with all forms of life, fostering kindness toward others and oneself. The day invites participants to appreciate the bonds shared with creatures, plants, and people, promoting empathy and compassion in daily interactions. Common customs include taking quiet walks in nature, engaging in small acts of kindness, spending time with animals, and reflecting on personal joys. Additionally, individuals are encouraged to support the environment through actions like planting trees or participating in cleanups. The day serves as a reminder to slow down and value the presence of life around us, enriching our experiences and nurturing a more harmonious existence.
