Adventure #26: Celebration

“Life is what you celebrate. All of it. Even its end.”  ~ Joanne Harris, Chocolat

I celebrate as much as I can. Any reason to have cake, I'm gonna find it. I may not always have cake on those days but they are still cake-worthy days. Here's the short list of days I love to celebrate:

• birthdays
• holidays
• popcorn day
• pizza day
• platypus day
• Official Stop and Smell the Roses Day (Apr. 28th, for those who want to join)
• All days that end in "y"
• Just For The Heck Of It Day (which is the same day as Dr. Seuss/Read Across America Day)
• I'm serious...every day I can!

The reason I bring this up is because today should be a day for cake! I'll have to go find me some. Either way, cake or not, today (meaning Nov 10th because I posted this late even though I made the date say Nov 9th) is one of my favorite days of the year!

Who wouldn't celebrate a day that changes their life? A day of knowledge and power but also of peace. Going through the temple is exactly what such a day is made of. So today, I'm writing a little about celebrating because we have much to celebrate. And every time I return to the temple as well as often in between, I feel gratitude for the opportunities and promises found in attending.

Whatever life brings, Nov. 10th is a day to celebrate. Enjoy your adventures!
