Last month my five-year old had her graduation ceremony. It was both a happy occasion and a realization that she is growing so fast. As we approached graduation, there was so much excitement and a wonderful energy in the house. The countdown to the event took place everyday nearly a month in advance. My daughter was prepared for what she called the Big Day well in advance. It was amazing to see her bubbling with joy and excitement and she wanted everyone to be a part of her celebration.
While I was witnessing all this one thought that popped into my mind frequently was: what happens to us adults regarding the events in our lives. In my own life I realize that so little time is spent in celebrating all the achievements big or small. I noticed the same pattern with my clients, friends and family. We hardly spend time in celebrating or relishing what has occurred. We quickly move on to the next thing. What do we miss by not celebrating? Celebration energizes everyone, and helps mark our growth. It gives us positive emotion, creates high frequency vibrations and brings us together with others to honor our achievements.
How about remembering to celebrate the little things in our day-to-day life and allowing the child in us to come out more. You’ll see what a big difference it makes.
