October 7 is a day rich in holidays and memorable events in the world and Kazakhstan. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Sputnik Kazakhstan.

Holidays

Today is the Day of Polite People. The phrase "polite people" first appeared on February 28, 2014, in Boris Rozhin's blog. He used it to describe people who, during the blockade of Crimea in February-March 2014, spoke politely with residents without introducing themselves. On March 16, 2014, a referendum on the status of the Crimean peninsula was held. The "polite people" participated in this referendum and protected those who came to freely express their opinions. The film "Road to the Fatherland" told about where the "polite people" came from and their goals.

Also, October 7 is the Day of Warm Things. It is especially relevant for those whose homes do not have heating turned on. In such a case, one should not only say warm words but also take out a warm coat, boots, a hat and a scarf from the closet.

The next holiday is dedicated to those who like to stand in front of the mirror for a long time or take photos — the Day of Self-Love. By the way, psychologists have recently said that men are not inferior to women in this "matter".
