The International Day of Peace , sometimes officially known as World Peace Day , is a United Nations -sanctioned holiday observed annually on 21 September. It is dedicated to world peace , and specifically the absence of war and violence , such as might be occasioned by a temporary ceasefire in a combat zone for humanitarian aid access. The day was first celebrated in 1981, and is kept by many nations, political groups, military groups, and people. In 2013 the day was dedicated by the Secretary-General of the United Nations to peace education , the key preventive means to reduce war sustainably.

To inaugurate the day, the United Nations Peace Bell is rung at UN Headquarters in New York City . The bell is cast from coins donated by children from all continents except Africa , and was a gift from the United Nations Association of Japan , as “a reminder of the human cost of war”; the inscription on its side reads, “Long live absolute world peace. ” (Wiki)

Prepping for my wife’s birthday this week and Heritage day which involves cooking a whole bunch of meat on a wood fire while drinking copious amounts of brandy and cokes.
