Celebration--100 Words



Celebration.

What causes you to celebrate?

I’m not talking about a smile where the corners of your lips slightly curl.

I’m talking about not caring who sees you jumping for joy, screaming like a 7-year-old child who’s about to go to Disney World for the first time, or a high school senior who’s been accepted to the college of her choice.

What causes you to celebrate like that?

A child’s birth. A good report after surgery. Keeping your job when layouts take place.

Oh, what’s that? You aren’t celebrating.

Celebration is a choice.

Decide today what your attitude will be.

  1. I celebrate a lot of things. I celebrate when my wife is talking to our grandson and puts him on speaker phone and when I say, "hi Braden!" he says, "ohh its grandpa!" I climbed the same hill twice yesterday on my bike. I celebrated by not dying. :) Actually i felt very good about being able to do it. I have so much to celebrate and to be grateful for.
