SEVEN TIPS TO EMRACE YOUR Birthday!
Here are my seven tips. It’s my birthday month!
Growing up on a farm, my birthday always coincided with our county fair and the time to harvest the wheat. Once these two were done: county fair and wheat harvest, we went on a family camping trip.
- Recognize it’s a gift from the Lord to age. If you’re not going up in numbers you’re dead. Give thanks, daily!
- Visit a place or location that centered around your birthday while growing up. Wheat fields for me. I love driving in the country.
- Come alive if you are dead inside. Get help through counseling or coaching. EMAIL for coaching. EmailDiscover your life purpose that will jazz you to get up out of bed.
- Exercise. Go outside and walk.
- Jump into something you always wanted to do. (Try piano lessons, create a craft or try a new recipe.)
- Celebrate YOU on your birthday. Do something for yourself. I will purchase a special coffee.
- Buy yourself a gift.
- What will you choose to do?
Life moves fast.
The 20’s and 30’s are decades of college years, work, moves, forming families perhaps, raising children, and/or juggling careers.
The 40’s shift your life again as kids fly the coop or back to college for you.
50’s can be so hard as you start facing the death of loved ones or perhaps you did in your 40s.
Then roll into the 60’s and you might start feeling the body slow a little, perhaps. Keep exercising and eating well and living out your life purpose.
And then into the 70’s … and perhaps you live into the 80’s or the 90’s. Do not stop.
I interviewed two 80 year old ladies that stood at my book table. I asked them what wisdom they would give to me to tell women. They said, “Keep moving.”
When you work with me, you will live your life alive! Come alive to embrace you~
My birthdays became special recently. A few years ago, I began having lunch with a family friend who shares the same birth date. Then this year I discovered that my new next door neighbor also had the same birthday, so the three of us had lunch together! And one of the 3 always pays, if we don’t get it free through the restaurant. Sadly, most restaurants have discontinued giving anything for birthdays.
Great step, Marie.
Proud of you and keep on going. Lovely for you to connect with these birthday ladies!
If I recall correctly, you share a birthday date same as my father’s.
Happy Birthday, late and keep celebrating!
