Burns Night Celebration, traditionally a Scottish celebration. January 25th is celebrated throughout the world as Robert Burns birthday. "You can put your own contemporary twists on the food or just choose a menu that celebrates Scottish produce, as long as haggis features at some stage." - Pippa Middleton

Robert Burns was a Scottish poet and lyricist widely regarded as Scotland's national poet. He was born on January 25, 1759, and died on July 21, 1796, at the age of 37. Also known as Robbie or “Rabbie” Burns, he is best known for his poem "Auld Lang Syne," which is often sung to celebrate the new year.

I wish for a power to give us this gift: Being able to see ourselves the way other people see us. Robert Burns - Wikiquote

“On this day in 1796: Robert Burns died in Dumfries at the young age of 37. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland. His poem (and song) "Auld Lang Syne" is sung at Hogmanay and "Scots Wha Hae" served for a long time as an unofficial national anthem of Scotland.”

Happy Burns Night! When Robert Burns wrote this line it was like lots of his poetry highlighting the absurdity of class pretension but I read it now and it speaks to me about imposter syndrome. Why is it so hard to see ourselves as others see us? To be our own champions to allow ourselves to be brilliant and recognise our own achievements and not be embarrassed to say so! That Rabbie Burns was kinda smart right? Have a fab Friday night give yourselves a wee big up and enjoy your haggis…
