Hi Friends, I hope you were able to use last week's gratefulness kick starter. Today, I want to shift your mind to something special... Away with the thought that that special moment will come.
What if today is the special occasion?
We often live our lives waiting for the “perfect moment” to enjoy what we have. The gorgeous dress in your closet still has its tags because you’re saving it for a special occasion. The fancy restaurant on your bucket list remains unvisited because you’re waiting for the right celebration. That luxurious perfume sits on the shelf, waiting for the day you feel it’s “worthy” to wear. That special bottle of wine you are keeping for just that grandiose occasion. How about those shoes that you just couldn't say no to, but they have been on the shoe rack for a year? Or that special necklace, that is waiting to see the light of day? Add to the list. What is it for you that you keep in the closet?
Here’s the truth: Today is the special occasion.
Life has an unpredictable rhythm, and the "right time" we anticipate may never arrive. Why not turn an ordinary day into something extraordinary? Slip into that stunning dress that makes you feel unstoppable. Let it transform your Tuesday into a memory worth cherishing. Make a reservation at the restaurant you’ve been eyeing and savor every bite like it’s a feast of gratitude for the present moment. Unbox the perfume and let its elegance accompany you on even the simplest errands. Wear the necklace, just because it makes you feel happy. Put on those shoes to go to Target, you might just inspire others to do the same! And pour a glass of that special wine to enjoy today because today is the special occasion.
Think about it: the essence of celebrating life isn’t in grand gestures or exclusive milestones. It’s in the everyday moments we choose to make meaningful. Small decisions to indulge in joy now create a life rich in memories and free from regret. Imagine looking back and realizing you didn’t wait to live—you celebrated along the way.
The truth is, the most precious thing we have is the here and now. By embracing today, you’re not just enjoying life—you’re honoring it. So wear the dress, eat the cake, and let every day feel like a special day, because it truly is.
Here is this weeks affirmation:
I choose to celebrate life by embracing joy in the here and now.
