Celebration of Life

It's my birthday! I have designated today to enjoy the simple things: the human touch, park walks with my family, overcast skies, the smell of rain, cupcakes and a tall glass of milk. For most, today is just another day, but I'm overjoyed that this one day out of the whole year ignites an inner reflection of the many self discoveries I've made in the last year.

India Arie's song "Private Party" is befitting for the occasion: "I'm having a Private Party..... Learning how to Love me .......Celebrating the woman I've become." We all reach a point in life where we don't need the big, lavish celebratory experiences to feel loved. Somehow we come to realize that the most special moments are spent with your inner circle sharing the most intimate moments. To be surrounded by Love and well wishes by the few people you have come to know as your boldest cheerleaders is enough for me.

I wouldn't have it any other way....

Happy Birthday to me.......
