I can agree with you from one angle. All days are equal and have no difference. This is what you try to point out. Philosophically, this is true. Philosophically, all men are equal beyond all material and physical differences. Yet, changes are changes at the worldly level. Man welcomes, celebrates certain changes. It is only like celebrating our birthdays and wedding anniversaries. Strictly speaking, these are only certain dates and days and what is the purpose behind such celebrations? Man needs it. It is a psychological need. Life is after all a question of celebration and not leading a robotic life. See, we all know the triviality behind such celebrations but, human beings need it. Man hasn't become a complete philosopher as yet. We can see life from a mechanical angle as well as from aesthetic point of view. The choice is yours.
