“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.” Oprah Winfrey
So exactly when did you stop celebrating? It slips up on you and you may not be able to remember when the wonder of life became so commonplace. Toddlers celebrate everything and we celebrate with them. I remember the song we sang when our daughters learned to use their potty. We sang, danced and cheered every attempt. When they no longer needed diapers or training pants we celebrated again.
Celebrations are constant in a child’s life. It is a normal part of their existence. Then adulthood happens and suddenly we have to find reasons to celebrate. My goal at the beginning of this year was to revitalize celebrations in my life. I believe that happy people celebrate the big, small, and seemingly indifferent events or occurrences in their lives. They celebrate the people with whom they interact and they celebrate themselves.
This may sound frivolous and trivial. If so, then I am not talking to you. If this sounds exciting, then I invite you to join me this month. I want to see and share your celebration pictures. So DM your picture and what you are celebrating to me on Instagram @Happyin30. I will repost and share as many as is feasible.
Are you with me? I hope so.
If you need more inspiration go to the National Day Calendar website or to the Secret Society of Happy People to find out what others are celebrating.
