Sunday, 18 March is National Awkward Moments Day
Learn to laugh at yourself, see the humor in awkward moments and have fun with them.
We have all done it – had an awkward moment and then replayed it over and over in our heads afterwards, wishing we had it differently. Sunday, 18 March is the annual day that every person can relate to, as we have all had our awkward moments from time to time as they are a part of life.
Awkwardness or embarrassment is defined as an emotional state of intense discomfort with oneself.
Have you ever called someone by the wrong name, tripped over nothing, walked into a door, fallen down the stairs in front of everyone, had the completely wrong words come out of your mouth or just forgot what you were doing? The list could go on and on. Sometimes, things just do not seem to go right, and something happens that may make you feel like you want to run and hide or a great big hole to open up to swallow you. Whether on National Awkward Moments Day or any other day, everyone has them.
