Thinking

Special Days

When we celebrate calendar holidays - do we expect them to be a certain way?  Do we think that they should look and be one way (our way)? 

Am I thinking that it should be that we all get dressed as a family and celebrate the day as a family.  That would be nice.   It is not my truth.  So, I could complain and be sad, angry or down.   OR I could be happy for the beautiful people I do have in my life and that they are healthy and accomplishing what they need to accomplish and be grateful for the time we are spending together just as we are.

Am I "should-ing" my day away or am I open and enjoying what my reality is.  I know if I look, I will find great things.

May you not tell yourself that things should be done a different way.  May you make HAPPY what is right in front of you today.
