Sometimes, it feels like we live our lives waiting for the next celebration. Just make it through the week, so we can get to Friday again. Set the countdown to the next major holiday or the next trip out of town. We like to set ourselves in Autopilot mode, trudging along in our routine, until we can catch another break. What if we celebrated something each day? What if we could make each day feel special? Life is this giant string of tiny moments. So why not make the most of each one of them?
Find little rituals that feel special! Brew your favorite tea at work, and take a few minutes to sip while reading some inspiring quotes. Download a meditation app, and dedicate 5 minutes each day to following your breath. Take a walk outside to feel the breeze and explore the neighborhood. Notice something new about the surrounding buildings and plants. Come home from work and light your favorite candle! Hell, indulge in a Jo Malone candle and light that once in a while!!! Just give yourself these special moments to enjoy!! Who cares if it’s not your birthday?? Eat some cake! Put a candle in it and blow it out to celebrate the fact that you are breathing!!
We are only here for a short time on this Earth, so let’s celebrate and enjoy as much as we can!
