Today is my birthday. This year I became active on Facebook, Twitter and to some extent LinkedIn. For someone who is fairly private it gives me a feeling of being “exposed.”
So today, when I received birthday well wishes my first thought was to “poo-poo” it and just ignore it. Of course it prompted me to think why?
For many of us we are so used to doing for others that when others recognize us it isn’t an easy thing to accept. What I know to be true is that most people have a basic goodness. I like people and love to learn from them. People really do want to help others, we just need to let them in to do it. This is not the time to rationalize the ‘why’ of this because what’s important here is that we are ALL special people.
We all have a purpose and were put on this earth to serve that purpose. So on the day of all days, your birthday, honor yourself. Allow yourself to bask in your own goodness and receive the well wishes of those who love and support you. I know I’ll give it a go today.
Enough said, have an extra piece of cake today and remember:
“Look Good, Feel Great and Have FUN Doing It!”
Enjoy your “special day” . . . I hope that it is all you desire . . . Cheers !!!
