Milestones

Wow! In the last week, I have been to Houston to celebrate the Fourth of July, my great nephew's first birthday and held my six week old great niece for the first time. But wait there's more! Just before we left, I became a Certified Creativity Coach.

We don't often celebrate more than one thing at a time. Maybe in June, we might have several graduations and a wedding. In December, we may have several parties to attend. But overall, our daily lives are routine. Or are they? If we are attuned to our creative selves, then we always have something to celebrate. Oh, maybe not with a large cook-out or even cake but we have small victories, a chapter finished, a painting started. We can and should celebrate even if it's just with a sigh of relief.
