To celebrate, here are some fun facts about this holiday:
-yes, St. Patrick was a real person
-however, Patrick was the name he took on when he became a priest. His real name is
Maewyn Succat.
-he was Ireland's patron saint
-he was an active missionary
-when he was 16, he was captured and made a slave by pirates in Ireland. He escaped back home to Great Britain and returned to Ireland six years later
-St. Patrick used 3-leaf clovers to explain the holy trinity. This is why we wear green.
-St. Patrick's day celebrates the supposed day when he died.
I KNOW I AM NOT WEARING GREEN SO PLEASE DO NOT PINCH ME
-Sincerely, everyone who does not have green to wear, including Paper Dragon -_- (I cannot tell you how many times I've been pinched and it's only 8 in the morning)
