We all deserve to be celebrated!! Part of being celebrated is celebrating ourselves with self-care. It's also important to celebrate with groups. Yes, it would be easier if we all just bought exactly what we wanted but it takes away the celebration. Too much is not good, but just enough celebration is perfection. We wouldn't want to have Christmas every day. We wouldn't want to have a wedding to go to every weekend, but it is perfect to have fun things on our calendars to anticipate!!
We all have our own barometer for when "enough is enough", and that is good and valid. Please, though, don't allow "zero fun, zero celebration" to become your baseline, because life without celebration is sad.
This is totally a "first world" problem, isn't it? We are very lucky. Although, those Canadians and Europeans can celebrate with the best of them. Don't get me started on how much vacation they have, I'm totally jealous!!!
Sometimes we make ourselves so efficient with our duties that we loose track of our plans for fun. Let's schedule it in so we don't let the time pass without memorable events. The story of our lives should be filled with enough celebration to balance the sadness that is inevitable.
So here's to the backyard summer BBQs, to fireworks, to ice cream socials, and shindigs; here's to the planners, the "back of the house" staff, and the clean up crew. We value each and every person who has given us a reason and/or the time, money, and effort to celebrate!! Making good memories is a wonderful habit.
Have a great day!
