Happy Life Day
This holiday is yours, but we all share with you the hope that this day brings us closer to freedom, and to harmony, and to peace. No matter how different we appear, we’re all the same in our struggle against the powers of evil and darkness.

This is the promise of the Tree of Life. – Princess Leia Organa
