Celebrating Memories

Today's blog is going to be about celebrating memories. When was the last time you actually looked over pictures from the past? Even with today's technology of digital cameras and digital everything else we put our pictures on a computer then inevitably forget about them until we need them for something. Take some time to look over your past memories or even get out some old pictures to show your children and reminisce about the past.
If you are a scrapbooker take time to scrapbook a few pages. I am a very, very , very sporadic scrapbooker but it can be fun to do a few pages. Sometimes doing a few pages can give a sense of accomplishment and you get to laugh and think back to fun times. Tonight I will celebrate a vacation we took a year ago. How fun it is to relive past memories and times we have forgotten.
Celebrate with past memories!!!!!!

Celebrate those in whose footsteps you follow

This is my first time blogging and I am struggling with putting things into words. I have wanted to start a blog thinking who would want to read it? But if for nothing else it can be almost theraputic. I think what I have seen is you have to have niche to have a blog. I guess you would say my niche is going to be celebrating those in your life and those who have gone on before you to make memories last.
Our lives are too short just to sit around and think about ourselves and always seek for our own happiness. When the people we have nearest to us, as much as they might annoy us and fight with us, if we do our best to celebrate them and make them happy our joy will come. I am by no means talking about unhealthy relationships that involve abuse or neglect but healthy relationships where despite our quirks we do do our best to get along.
There is nothing that thrills me more than to celebrate a milestone in someones life. Celebrate a birthday, anniversary or anything else that I know is important to that person or will make them feel important. We never know how long we have each other.
I lost my Mom 10 and a half years ago to ovarian cancer and I have no regrets. She was the Queen of celebrating people. I just want to carry on that heritage for my family, friends and anyone else in my life.
STOP!! Take a breath and look real close at those that are around you. Have you celebrated them lately. Let them know even if the celebration is a Thank You or most importantly an
I LOVE YOU!!!!!
