The importance of celebrating

It's easy to forget to take a moment to celebrate small milestones - and big events.

We all have them. Significant, or even seemingly insignificant milestones on life's journey.

Birthdays are a prime example. So too, finishing significant achievements - or portions of them: a good mark in an assignment. Finishing a semester at uni. Finishing a uni degree. Sporting events - your footy team wins a game or the season.

Or you all managed to turn up to the game on the right day.

Life is made up of endless moments of business as usual. We get up. We work. We play. We love. We laugh and cry. We take comfort where we can with friends and family.

It's so easy for life to just pass us by, letting routine win the day. Eat. Sleep. Work. Sleep eat work eat sleep eat.

Too easy.

Truth be told I'm pretty bad at celebrating others' milestones. So I remind myself when I remember to, to make a big deal about things every now and then.

For me, and for others.

Because it's the little things which, when put together, make up our lives and define us as people.

I think no one could have said that any better :) It´s definitely the small moments which make our life´s worthwile and special :)

Nice post.

by celebrating you are definitely making these little moments bigger and memorable

everything has its moment, and celebrating is as important as working ...

Hola amigo.
Todos los días tenemos el derecho de celebrar. Celebrar un día más compartiendo con nuestros seres queridos, formándonos, viviendo y disfrutando.
Ojo, no necesariamente todos los días tenemos que celebrar con alcohol. Pero de vez en cuando no cae nada mal.
Saludos y a Celebrar

Truth be told, we need to recognize every task, challenge we overcome everyday because these small wins are what make up the big overall like graduations, company IPOs, marriages etc. If we don't recognize and celebrate our successes, who will do it for us? It's our time to live for us!

GOOD JOB AND THINKING

True that! and equally important to apply the same philosophy in relationships. Celebrating even the small things with your SO can go a long way

In Denmark we are pretty good at finding things to celebrate, cause celebrations is prime reason for drinking and we do love our drinking.. :)

But yeah, it's important to keep tap on the small things so you don't loose focus on the big picture

Life is like a box a chocolate, open it and savor every piece and moment.

It is those small moments that make up life

The more you celebrate life ... the more life you have to celebrate!

I have a problem celebrating for myself. The perfectionist in me just feels I don't deserve it.

But celebrating others success can be fun 😃

Great points presented!!

Life is made to celebrate it, the good and suffer the bad. Everything in its time.
