Happy B’earthday to …
Every year, an event takes place that never ceases to amaze me — my b’earth day (You know … the day I came to earth day!)
When I was younger, it was all about what I was getting — you know, a Betsy Bean doll, Guess jeans, a new car (never happened!) or a later curfew.
In my twenties, it was all about letting go — letting go of what never happened, what I no longer was or, after three kids, attachment to an idea of what my body should be or do. Funny how Motherhood changes you.
In my thirties, I came to find the power of Gratitude — Gratitude for having a roof over my head and love in my heart, as well as the freedom (and choice!) to follow my bliss thru stewarding Go Gratitude.
So this year, to celebrate another turn around the sun, I made a list of all the things I’m grateful for — 37 to be exact — to match my age and euro shoe size.
Enjoy and feel free to share a few things you are great-full for, too!
