Webster’s Dictionary defines party as a social gathering. I’ve redefined it as a spiritual gathering and decided to gather the people, things and vibes (socially distanced of course) that feed my spirit. Here’s what I did to create joy on my birthday during the pandemic.
I also had trouble getting into the Christmas spirit this year. The spirit of joy, giving and gratitude just wasn’t automatically rising up in my spirit like year’s past. The normal family tradition of the us gathering for dinner and helping the kids of the family (there are a lot of them, ages 1-10) make and bake cookies and gingerbread houses on Christmas Eve isn’t an option. Things are just different and I found myself angry and discouraged about the changes. I knew I had to do something about that because there is so much to be grateful for and so many opportunities to create joy and connectedness in new ways.
My twenties were great, but not absent of mistakes, obstacles and self-limiting beliefs. Although I built a career, stability and partied consistently, as I entered my thirties I desired more, and I intentionally created more for myself. Now in my late thirties, I am inspired to celebrate just some of what this awesome season of my life has brought me.
