It's almost my birthday...The thing about birthdays for me, I give myself permission to do whatever I want cuz, it's my birthday. I throw a party for myself.
Well, really, parties- several, all day or all month or half the year, even alone at breakfast on July 19th mornings. I bought 2 magazines today, it's my birthday! I tell everyone I run into: it's my birthday...I even start early (sometimes, months early) with clerks in stores, passengers on buses even friends. I learned it from the 6 year old me.
And on that day -July 19th, I allow people...strangers, friends, loved ones of all kinds to just give me things, smiles and greetings and hugs and all kinds of gifts & things and I just say thank you and take it all in...risking, feeling loved by all.
Simple but not always so easy!
Happy Birthday to you, too!!
