“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.” ~Oprah Winfrey
This blog is all about finding a way to celebrate the big 5-0. I was speaking to a friend last night and he asked me what I was planning. He told me that all of his friends that are turning 50 were planning BIG things. I told him that I would keep him informed and include him in the celebration. After our conversation I thought about it and realized that although I want to mark the day in some way doing something big is really not my style. Maybe a small dinner with friends, maybe no dinner and just an evening of desserts, maybe a spa day with my friends, maybe a romantic dinner….. (Remember my blog day one… I want to wear a red dress). I think that whatever I decide I now realize that I have made this into a 133 day birthday. I will be celebrating my day and myself every day until January 4th. How fabulous is that? On the final day of my blog I should (god willing) have gained more insight into where I was, where I’m going and where I want to be. That is the ultimate celebration. The best gift I can give myself is to be happy and realize that I’ve done my best. Oh…and I will be wearing a red or at least a sexy dress…even if I’m just having cupcakes and champagne.
