Birthays and Self Relection

I celebrated my birthday this year being alone and practicing selfcare. This has not been the first birthday I have done this and probably not the last. Birthdays have always been very special to me, so much so I usually celebrate all month, so I decided to treat myself and take the day off. 

I started the day out enjoying my coffee snuggled with my fur kids.  Next came my appointment for a massage; after which I had plans to go shopping at thrift shops and antique stores.  Of course, Spirit had other plans for me and I wound up going with a friend to her reading. Thankfully Spirit knows what I need more than I do as I received messages I needed to hear. 

Many people will say birthdays are just another day; which I will strongly disagree.  Birthdays are about the celebration of coming into this world.  Each year is about celebrating the person you are becoming and taking a good look at yourself to see where you can grow and learn. Birthdays are not about age they are about you and reaching your potential.

As the day progressed, I enjoyed many messages from family and friends that show me how much I am loved and appreciated; which lately I have really needed.  I contemplated again this year how I can change and become an even better person.  So, I will thank God for another year to have the chance to learn and grow and to reach my full potential to serve Him.
