Celebrating new things seems to be what we do. We prepare for new arrivals and share the good news of the arrival with our family and friends as well as the people around us who don't fit into those categories. Some strangers will even take notice of our new arrival and strike up a conversation with us about it and offering congratulations in the process. We are vocal about our new things and we tell it. I got a new baby, I got a new car, I got a new house, I got a new man, I got a new woman, I got accepted into college, I got a new job and the list contnues. In our excitement and depending on what the new thing is, our family and friends ask, where did you get it? Or give me that recipe, let me try it. They celebrate with you, they come see the new baby or post your good news on social media in support of your success. We celebrate all things new except for our day. Why?
Every day that we wake up is a day we have never seen before, we have never experienced it, we haven't lived in it and knew the night before that this new day was not promised to us. It's brand new, why not celebrate it just as you do every other new thing you receive in life? Why not plan for it, be grateful for its arrival, get your family and friends excited about it, show it off, be happy and love every new day you get to see. Celebrate today!
